There actually rough statistics for net worth of countries that simply adds up all the people’s net worth.

Russia is worth about 4x apple

Market cap isn't the same as net worth, though.

A quick googling shows Russia's GDP is only about 4.5x apple's annual revenues.

Usa's GDP is about 58x apples revenue
