    Euro Zone Members as U.S. States

    To get a sense of scale, Real Time Economics compared the 2009 output of goods and services for members of the euro zone to the output of U.S. states. The economy of Spain, for instance, is about the same size as the combined economies of Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico and Arkansas. Italy is nearly as big as Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin and Kentucky combined.

      What exactly did they compare. The US is still by far the world's biggest economy.
      On wikipedia, I saw that the US are leading by being 4 times bigger then the next economy.

        They compared apples to oranges.
