Its principal character is Brazil, which is the region's largest economy with a GDP of nearly $800 billion that means almost 70% of MERCOSUR´s total GDP.
Actually, the total population of MERCOSUR´s countries is more than 250 million people, which means that it is now the world's fourth-largest trading bloc, after the European Union (EU), North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), and the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN).
