The [[:Archivo:Mundo_Producto-Interior-Bruto-per-capita-en-el-mundo_2020_mapa_18057_spa.jpg| ''Gross Domestic Product per capita '']] map reveals the contrast between the most developed countries, located in Europe, North America and Oceania, and the least developed ones, concentrated mainly in Africa. The impact of the 2020 economic crisis was uneven, with different implications for various parts of the world. Europe and the United States experienced a sharp drop in GDP as mobility restrictions and temporary company shutdowns curbed their economic activity. In contrast, despite successfully managing to control the pandemic, China, Australia and New Zealand experienced economic downturns mainly caused by the decline in exports due to the significant decrease in international trade.

With regard to Europe, the map showing the [[:Archivo:Europa_Variacion-del-Producto-Interior-Bruto-en-la-Union-Europea_2019-2020_mapa_18086_spa.jpg|''Variation in Gross Domestic Product in the European Union '']] shows two complementary variables, i.e. the 2020 GDP per capita by State and the variation in GDP between mid-2019 and mid-2020. In terms of GDP per capita, the States with the highest incomes were those located in Scandinavia, the Benelux, Germany, France, Austria and Ireland, whilst those with the lowest incomes were in Eastern Europe, especially Romania and Bulgaria. In terms of variation, however, the States that suffered the most severe economic contractions during the first half of 2020 were those on the shores of the Mediterranean, along with Belgium, Hungary and Romania. At the other end of the scale, Ireland, Luxembourg and the Scandinavian and Baltic States were the least impacted.

</ul></div>Another analysis relevant to the study of how the crisis impacted the labour market is shown on the map depicting the Unemployment rates in the European Union in 2020. Figures were clearly high for Spain, Greece and some Scandinavian and Baltic States. The Eastern States, Belgium, the Netherlands, Ireland and Portugal, however, had lower unemployment rates. Generally speaking, unemployment increased to a greater extent in States that previously had fragile labour markets and were therefore more exposed to the crisis. It is also worth mentioning that the relatively high data for Scandinavia could be linked to the fact that the these States tend to have better social protection schemes for the unemployed than the rest of the Union. Lastly, it should be noted that the temporary job protection measures succeeded in tempering the final figures for all EU Member States.
