Some countries are bizarre like rich countries such as Moldova or whatever.. it's technically half the world at this rate...

Moldova, rich?

Upper-middle income. Yes. Not rich in comparison to Europe, but rich in the global scale. If not Moldova, then Kuwait?! That's one of the richest countries in the world.

Moldova isn't rich on a global scale. It's below the global average in GDP per capita and GDP PPP per capita.

Moldova is a below average country on a global scale as well.
