While the presentation of economic sectors was simplistic, most economies have some blend of the four sectors. Chose one or two countries in your region and focus on their economic development. What are their primary exports? Natural resources? Industrial goods? Services? Research? What can these tell you about the level of economic development in that country? What are barriers (if any) to further economic development, according to opinion-writers and politicians?

Do NOT just list the economic indicators. Talk about how these economic sectors were shaped by the availability of natural resources, policies, or international trade.

Prompt 2
