FORTUNE -- To understand Wal-Mart, consider some facts. - Wal-Mart's sales on one day last fall--$1.42bn--were larger than the GDPs of 36 countries.
- It is the biggest employer in 21 states, with more people in uniform than the U.S. Army.
- It plans to grow this year by the eqivalent of (take your pick) one PepsiCo, one Microsoft, or Lockheed Martin.
- If the estimated $2bn it loses through theft each year were incorporated as a business, it would rank No. 694 on the Fortune 1000.
