The comparison follows Mississippi alongside Kuwait, Slovakia and Uzbekistan from 1997 through 2025. These countries are the three closest eligible economies by final-year GDP, with complete annual data over the same interval. State figures come from the BEA all-industry GDP series and country figures from the World Bank. Values are in current US dollars, so inflation and exchange-rate movements affect the comparison. Total output is not household income, a living-standard ranking or GDP per person.
