Leaders from around the world will converge on Brisbane this weekend for the G20 Leaders' Summit and Finance Ministers meeting.
At the summit, world leaders and finance ministers will mostly discuss the financial matters of most importance at the time, but how do the member countries compare?
NOTE: The European Union is a G20 member, however, several also EU members are also G20 members and have been looked at instead.
How much do you know about the G20 member countries?
