Puerto Rico is not an independent country. It's part of the United States.

Puerto Rico is a Caribbean nation. Per capita I would say Uruguay is in the best shape financially. |

Puerto Rico isn't a country, but a territory and potentially a future state of the US. It is also Caribbean, not Latin American. |

What do you mean by 'best shape economically"? If you mean who has the highest GDP, then that would be Brazil.
GDP (PPP) 2007 estimate
- Total US$1.804 trillion |

Puerto Rico has NEVER even been its own country.
They were owned by Spain and now by the U.S.
Argentina, Chile and Mexico are in the best shape economically. |

I'll reiterate what Mika F stated: "Puerto Rico is not an independent country. It belongs to the United States." What you mean by "the best shape economically," is a good question not all that easy to answer. In Central America, the answer would be Costa Rica. In Latin America, the answer might be Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, or even Mexico depending on what criteria the question is based on. |

Uruguay (due to its' small population) and Chile (huge fishing and wine industries) are probably the best economically sound nations in the region. By the way, Puerto Rico is NOT part of the United States. Supreme court ruling (Balzac vs. Puerto Rico) ruled that the island is NOT part of the United States and only falls under U.S. law due to it's colonial status. There are 50 stars on the U.S. flag and NONE represent Puerto Rico. |
