Very interesting Doc.
I especailly found the drop in the average French PPP based per capita income interesting when compared with the Mexican increase in PPP based per capita income.
By the way, Wikipedia lists the Corsican population as 302,000 in 2008, and the GDP per capita as 20,300 euros in 2006.
If I could offer a suggestion. The ratios effectively demonstrate the variation between the rich and the poor of each country. However they, by themselves, do not provide numbers that most can really get a feel for. Simple average per capita incomes at each percentage point (if available) would be much more effective.
So, are you an Economist?
