Peer countries
To better understand a country's profile, it is useful to understand it in the context of other comparable countries. Which countries form the set of so-called peer countries can vary depending on the purpose of the comparison. Often we can find peer countries based on common income classifications, geographic regions, or climate profiles. See the FAQ for more details.
