Unlike many of the countries that feature on this page, Country T is a high-income country according to its gross national income (GNI) per capita (measured by the World Bank Atlas method), and is classified as a very high human development country on the basis of its human development index (HDI). It is a member of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), a well-known forum made up of 34 democracies with market economies.
Country T has shown remarkable progress to reach this position. In the early 1950s, GNI per capita was about $67, comparable to countries such as Sudan or Afghanistan. Country T was the first former aid recipient to become a member of the DAC (the OECD committee that dispenses aid to less developed countries).
