China: modern China, space and contested topics, sentence 9

China's economy grew very fast from about 1980 to the 2010s; counted in US dollars it is now the world's second biggest, after the USA; but shared out among about 1.4 billion people it is much less per person than in rich countries, so China is still a middle-income country, and growth has slowed in recent years.

Who acts: economy, China, growth · What happens: grow, count, be, share out, slowed · To what, where: US dollars, billion people, income country
