Development at different speeds

Why are some countries rich and others poor?

Internal factors:

causes are in the country itself

External factors:

causes are outside of the country

Internal causes 

Natural causes:

1. The development opportunities (enough precipitation, not too many mountains, fertile soils, availability of raw materials etc.) 
2. The location of the country. Is it landlocked or close to sea? 

• Natural conditions play a role, but do not determine whether a country becomes more or less economically developed. A good example of this is Switzerland.
