Without wasting time, here are the top ten poorest countries in the world.

10. Madagascar

GDP Per Capita: $1,500 (approx.)

The tenth country on this list of poorest countries in the world is Madagascar.

This country is actually an island that is located on the Indian Ocean, and is just off the coast of the South African territory.

Madagascar is also ranked as the number four biggest island in the world.

The main things that contribute to the GDP of Madagascar are coffee, palm oil, rice and silk.

As a nation, Madagascar has experienced a lot of conflicts in the past.

However, they have managed to remain as a peaceful nation.

According to statistics, over 70% of the people who live in Madagascar are poor.

With a GDP that is clocked below $1,500 (approx.), Madagascar is ranked as the tenth poorest country in the world.

9. Guinea

GDP Per Capita: $1,400 (approx.)

In ninth spot on this list of top ten poorest countries in the world, we have Guinea.

Moreover, they have a total population of over 74 million people.

7. Eritrea

GDP Per Capita: $1,200 (approx.)

This country functions completely as a full nation.

However, they often face the repercussions of UN sanctions.

The whole economy of Eritrea depends on gold and silver.

In addition, they also export cement and make a lot from it.
