In other sources it says Luxembourg or Liechtenstein but the "international monetary fund" says watar

Bermuda?
apparently it doesn't count as a real country because it doesn't have a ranking. it's between 3 and 4 on one source, and it isn't on the other 2

how is this not the same deal with other oil rich countries, not dubai but ones like Qatar, 3rd world countries because they have regimes that are more interested in stealing from their citizens than building them up

It's per capita. If 2 millionaires started a country, the per-capita income would be a million dollars
