Zimbabwe, as of 2020, has a GDP of $0.1 per capita
Extreme inflation has reduced Zimbabwe to the world's poorest country. Previously he was ranked as the 10th poorest in the world, but horrific inflation has collapsed this country's economy. Inflation made the country print a billion dollars of currency since 2007, but that was just enough to buy a few eggs.
In August 2008 the government decided to let the banks subtract ten zeros from the end of the currency. Six months later they removed six zeros but added twelve new ones. Seven times 87 thousand percent inflation means that prices are doubling every 1.1 days. For example, if an apple sells for $1 on Monday then by Sunday that apple will sell for $64.
In a month the same apple would sell for 1 million dollars. The largest government bank issued currency in 2009 in denominations of up to 100 trillion dollars. Aside from economic problems Zimbabwe also has the lowest life expectancy in the world; the average life expectancy for men is 37 years and for women 34 years. One of the causes of premature deaths is that up to 20.1% of the population is living with HIV and AIDS. There is no hope of solving the health problem; three of the four largest hospitals and the country's only medical school were forced to close in 2009.
Extended information:
The country is rich in natural resources, has a good agricultural and industrial base, is self-sufficient in food in normal years, and was once the third-largest exporter of tobacco. Since 2000, due to the implementation of the "rapid agrarian reform program" by the Western sanctions, the economy has shrunk significantly. Shortages of foreign currency, fuel and basic necessities have led to a surge in inflation and an influx of people into neighboring countries.
After March 2008, the economic situation deteriorated further, and by the end of the year the economy had basically collapsed, with key sectors such as finance, treasury and tax collection virtually shut down, and the management of social **** such as water, electricity, communications, health care and education nearly paralyzed.
In February 2009, after the formation of the coalition government, the economic situation has improved, since 2016, the economic difficulties have worsened, a serious shortage of liquidity.In December 2017, after the formation of the government of Mnangagwa, efforts to build a "new economic order", but still face many difficulties.

Which country in the world is the poorest?
The 3 poorest countries in the world are unimaginably poor, and each one is heartbreaking!
Now our life is already very good, eat full wear warm, but can be heard from mom and dad them, before we Chinese people live what kind of hard life, usually have to dig wild vegetables, gnawing the bark of the tree, visible to our old generation suffered much suffering, these we can only listen to hear, completely feel the kind of poor life at that time, but in the present this technologically developed, the economic boom era, the world is the poorest country in the world. But in this era of advanced technology and economic boom, the world is still somewhat similar to the kind of hard times before our country. And we will talk about the three poorest countries in the world today.
One, the Democratic Republic of the Congo **** and the country
The country of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, is a country in the African region, and the land area is the second largest country in Africa, the population is also very much, but this country is very backward, far from a big country should have the economic strength and the current sense of technology.
And the reason why the DRC is poor is because this country is also experiencing war, so that they excel in agriculture and mining industry are paralyzed, before the war they can also rely on agriculture and mining to maintain the economic pressure of the people, the day is not bad, but unfortunately still because of the war to the destruction of this balance, resulting in the country's economy hit rock bottom.
To the 21st century, the DRC's economy is gradually recovering, slowly growing, and even in many countries under the financial support of the people's lives or a little bit of a rise, but this country is really backward, so even so, their economy is not very good, the people do not have a lot of income, resulting in can not afford to eat a good, all become malnourished and backward level of medical care, so the life expectancy of the people of this country is not very good.
This is why people in this country have a shorter life expectancy.
Two, Haiti
Maybe many people have not heard of the country of Haiti, this country is an island in North America, but the island's natural disasters are very serious, resulting in the country in a state of disaster relief for many years, and then there is the country's long years of earthquakes, so it is difficult to have any economic sources, resulting in the country does not have advanced equipment to bring productivity, so most people in this country do not have a job. Most of the people in this country don't have a job, so there's not much income left.
We recently popularized the Internet phrase "no money to eat dirt", very hot, but no one will really go to eat dirt, but some Haitian people really eat dirt, they do not have the economic resources, but in order to survive can only be soil as flour, with oil and salt and up, as food to eat. You can see how poor it is.
Three, Zimbabwe
This country, do not know the people will certainly think that they have how rich, in a long time ago their country's inflation, resulting in their currency denomination is very large, the largest has been issued to 10 billion Zimbabwean dollars, resulting in even the country's bread and other things need 100 billion Zimbabwean dollars.
In this case, the country's economy has collapsed, the government is also unable to recover, many hospitals are closed because of the economic collapse, many Zimbabwean people have no place to see the sick, only slowly die of illness. In order to live some people can only live by begging.
Looking at the above three countries, I feel that life in our country is really too good to be true, thanks to the efforts of our government to create such a harmonious and beautiful, comfortable and happy life for us. The world's 3 poorest countries, poor to unimaginable, each let a person heartbreaking!
