You might also be surprised to know that it's not so much the "western" countries that dominate the list. China, Japan, and India are 3 thru 5. FWIW, North Korea is number 99 with a $22 billion economy (For reference Wal Mart had sales of $230 billion in 2003).

Here's the top 20 according to the CIA world factbook:
