There are 3 different types of indicators that can help you decide the development of a country: Economic, Social, and Demographic indicators.

Economic: GDP, Technology, Communication, Imports and Exports, Economic Systems, worker productivity, Raw materials (natural resources etc.), Industrial Capabilities, Modes of Farming, and Urban vs. Rural Centers Social: Education, Health Care, Literacy Rate, Welfare Government Types Demographic: Life Expectancy, Infant Mortality Rate, Crude birth rate, Population

Terms to know when dealing with Nations’ development: The 4 Economic Systems The 10 Government types GDP: total output value of goods and services produced in a country in one year GNP: includes income people earn abroad Embargo: one country’s refusal to trade with another country Export: goods sent to other countries Import: goods accepted from other countries Industry: manufacturing goods in a factory Infant Mortality Rate: number of infant deaths per 1,000 births Life Expectancy: average # of years an infant is expected to live Literacy Rate: percentage of a country’s people who can read and write (15 yrs and older) Per-Capita: per person Subsistence Farming: producing food for consumption by family Commercial farming: producing food for sale off the farm
