Important Note: these figures are expressed in PPPW. This is an economics technique to determine the relative power of local currencies. Hence, confusingly, a considerable number of people in this graph may not be living on, in absolute terms, less than $1.25 per day (which itself is in international dollarsW, or the purchasing power in US$ at a given point in time, usually 1990 or 2000).
