O IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics) released its new survey of Brazilian federative units that have the highest economic production.

GDP is reached by the sum of goods and services produced by each of the 26 states and also the Federal District. However, when comparing the GDP of the regions, it is possible to notice a divergence in the distribution of wealth within the country itself. While the state of São Paulo accounts for almost a third of the wealth of all of Brazil, the state of Roraima represents just 0.2% of the total.
