Of course Finlands population is half of the Czech one thus their gdp per capita in nominal terms is significantly higher (54k Finland Czech 31k) the gap however has been closing the past decades and in PPP terms it’s even smaller (60k Finland 50k Czechia). Czech Republic has a better unemployment rate (3% compared to 7.5% in Finland) and half debt/gdp than Finland.
This was bound to happen with a twice as large population. If it didn’t happen, it would mean that Czechia is terribly behind, which it fortunately isn’t anymore.
That’s pretty cool.
Czechia will also soon have the worst quality of roads and highways for the highest fee of the entire EU. Last month they had to destroy new, several km long highway because lab test showed that it wouldn’t last it’s intended lifetime.
Finland has significantly higher household disposable income and a very high quality of life. Per capita household disposable cash income of Finland is 22,398 EUR in 2021, average household disposable income is 43,523 EUR in 2021.

Congrats Czechia!
Our economy has pretty much stagnated since Finance crisis.
2018-2017 was like a lost decade for Finnish economy.
Český knedlík!!
Desont Finland have like half of population tho?
Pfft, no wonder considering every middle class family in Finland has a Skoda. Even our trams are Skoda.
You are doing great, but remember that we made you. /j
Always happy to see another EU member thriving!
Must be p0rn Industry
Based Czechia 👏
Belami is the main driver.
Finland is great if you wanna sit at home and collect social security, getting decent job is very difficult.
Ok, do per capita now.
Škoda > Nokia
Czechia would not have unlocked her potential under socialist/communist rule.
