Briefly discuss about underdeveloped countries.

Open in App
Solution

An underdeveloped country is a nation that lags behind most others in industrialization, education, standard of living, healthcare, life expectancy and other technological and cultural norms. Rwanda, Somalia and Ethiopia are all examples of underdeveloped countries.
Many things prevent underdeveloped nations from developing. Most of these countries are extremely poor and do not have the resources to develop programmes to educate and train citizens to farm or perform skilled work. Malnutrition also lowers life expectancy and renders many incapable of working. Basic needs such as food, clothing and shelter are scarce. Sometimes, natural disaster impedes underdeveloped countries even further.
