Worldmapper's tagline is "The world as you've never seen it before," and the site is a great visualizing tool, distorting the shapes of countries to reflect relative data. Check out Toy Exports in the illustration above, for example, against Toy Imports below. Here's a bit of text from the site to go with that:
...In terms of earnings from toy exports, there is considerable variation between Eastern Asian territories. Net exports earnings per preson from Hong Kong are more than 10 times greater than those from Taiwan, and almost 100 times greater than those from China.and
...Most imports of toys (US$ net) are to the United States, followed by the United Kingdom. Toys are fun but not necessities. Thus toy imports give an indication of disposable incomes.
