How does gross domestic product differ from gross national income
vaieri [72.5K]

GDP (Gross market value) measures the market value of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given period of time.

GNP (Gross National Product) measures the market value of all final goods and services produced by a country's citizens or residents. The difference is subtle but important.

GNP excludes economic activity that occurs for example in the U.S. but is owned by foreigners and includes American economic activity that occurs in other countries.

GDP is place based whereas GNP is ownership based.  Thus if a foreigner starts a company in Silicon valley, this will count as GDP, but not GNP.  If  General Electric opens a new plant in India, this investment will be included in GNP but not GDP.

By the late 19th century, Fiji had been ceded to which country?
Korolek [52]
<span>The question is asking us which country had Fiji been ceded to by the late 19th century. If you look at Fiji's flag, you will see Union Jack, so it already suggests that it used to be a British colony. In fact, it became a British colony in 1874 and remained subjugated to the UK until 1970, when it achieved independence - so the answer is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland (as it was known then)</span>

Why rural settlement have decline
nignag [31]
So, the question is asking: why has (over the course of human history) rural settlement declined (and it is suggested that this is connected to humans moving away from the rural areas, to urban areas, rather than human population declining in general:

this process is called urbanization and its major cause is that on the one hand, food in the industrialized societies can be produced more effectively so there is less work on farm, and on the other hand the service sector has increased, which means that there is more work in the cities.
