Analysis# South Sudan, Republic of GDP per Capita (PPP)
South Sudan's GDP per capita (PPP) reached 1,154.347 international dollars in 2026, marking its all-time peak. This represents an 89.7% increase since 2011, yet the country remains among the world's poorest economies. The nation's lowest recorded value of 288.904 international dollars occurred in 2017, reflecting the severe economic impact of civil conflict and political instability during that period.
Recovery accelerated sharply between 2017 and 2022, with GDP per capita nearly quadrupling from 288.904 to 1,009.325 international dollars. A notable dip to 770.521 in 2024 interrupted the upward momentum, though projections for 2025–2026 show strong rebound momentum, suggesting renewed economic stabilization. Sustained improvement depends critically on maintaining political stability and diversifying revenue sources beyond oil exports.
