There are power rankings where these top companies are considered more influential than many nations.

Sorry for the terrible formatting. Tried to fix it but the last edit seems to have borked it completely.

EDIT: Now in plain text since the last URL does not show up otherwise. And why is it rendering with --, its only - in the URL?
Influence and power are related but separate concepts.
And often the influence of an organisation is related to the state willing to back it. The US intervening for Tesla for instance. And China Petroleum wouldnt be so big if it wasnt for the chinese state.
