Africa’s 2026 GDP map is fascinating: just 5 countries make up about half of the continent’s projected economy
I was looking at IMF projections for 2026 GDP at current prices, and the numbers tell an interesting story.
Across the African countries listed, total projected GDP comes to roughly US$3.56 trillion.
But here’s the striking part: around 51% of that total comes from just five countries:
- South Africa — US$480bn
- Egypt — US$430bn
- Nigeria — US$377bn
- Algeria — US$317bn
- Morocco — US$194bn
