Question

Which of the following would not affect the economic development of a country?

• A. A war with a neighbouring country
• B. Decrease in foreign trade
• C. Higher birth rate
• D. Constant ratio of birth rate to death rate

Answer 1

The correct option is D Constant ratio of birth rate to death rate

In addition to the government setup, other factors also affect the economic development of a country. These include population sizes, global situations, cooperation with other countries, and the economic policies adopted in the country. A war would lead to a negative impact on the economy. The same result would occur if there were a decrease in foreign trade.
