Answer 1

I will be comparing the development between the country of Japan and Chad.

Japan is a HIC (High Income Country) and Chad is a LIC (Less Income Country). Stated in the world factbook, the country of Japan has a GDP (Gross Domestic Product) of $5.405 trillion dollars while Chad has a GDP of $29.64 billion in 2017. GDP shows the value of the country based on its resources and value of products that the country produces. This means Japan is full of a lot of resources and can manufacture many products to import and export. Chad does not have many resources, so they cannot produce many goods.

According to Rostow’s model, counties develop by completing 5 stages. A country starts out with agriculture and then makes its way to become an industrialized and innovated country. Many LIC’s are still in the first couple stages of the model where agriculture takes a big part of people’s lives because farming takes a long time to do. The government can help with the development of farming by giving people the tools and equipment needed so they can do things faster and more efficiently.
