Uh... Having more money?
Country A is richer than Country B if and only if Country A has more money. Country B may have a great QOL, low obesity, low inequality, etc etc. But its not richer unless it has more money. That's kinda what the word means.
- soco 3y agoA "country" cannot have money, it's not a real thing. People can have money, companies can have money, government can have money, banks can have money... you need to be more precise here. My expectation is when the people (I mean regular people) have more money at their disposal, thus more access to healthcare and education and mobility and beer and such, then the country is happier and better off thus richer. Reducing the word "rich" to "money" might be the cause of your confusion, but the dictionary explains it just as well by "having high value or quality".
