INFANT MORTALITY RATE Number of infants who die per every thousand births in that country. Gives you insight into how strong/weak a country’s healthcare system is.

LIFE EXPECTANCY The number of years on average a person from that country could expect to live. Another way to see how strong/weak a country’s health care is.

PER CAPITA GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT (GDP) 28 Total value of all the goods (stuff) and services (help) produced by an average person in a country over a year (NOT how much they earn). This tells you if a country has high-skilled or low-skilled workers.

PER CAPITA INCOME 29 The average income a person would make in a country Tells you how wealthy/poor an average citizen is

LITERACY RATES 31 The percentage of people who can read and write in a country Tells you how well educated a country is Also shows how much/ little equality there is between men & women

RATE of NATURAL INCREASE Birth Rate – Death Rate (w/o factoring in immigrations) for the most recent year available Shows how fast/slow a country’s population is growing. . . usually countries that grow faster are less developed and countries that grow slower are more developed

COMMERCIAL AGRICULTURE Large scale farming/ranching, to sell for a profit, often beyond the local area Found in both newly industrialized and more developed countries.

COTTAGE INDUSTRY Small scale production, often done in one’s home, for sale in the local area Found everywhere, but more common in less developed countries

COMMERCIAL INDUSTRY Large scale production, usually in a factory, to be sold beyond the local area Found in both newly industrialized and more developed countries.
