Ask HN: Relation b/w Economic Performance and Size of Countries
HNers, if you have any research you can point to that correlates economic performance with the size of countries, I&#x27;d love for you to share it here.<p>It&#x27;s a convoluted subject for sure, but the thought experiment here is - can fast information channels and troves of digital data lead to convergence in our physical world in terms of law strucure, economic policies, etc on a macro level in concert with existence of smaller countries with hyper-focused growth strategies and well-hydrated human&#x2F;material supply chains connecting them?<p>We do not need to go down the rabbit hole by asking what the definition of a country is, and can assume that it&#x27;s a geographically locked piece of land with uniform laws and a well-defined governance model.
