Oct 2nd HG Class

Today's class was basically researching for the countries in the CIA homepage. The interesting facts that I found was that Mexico's economy is world's 10th largest. I was impressed because I did not know that Mexico has this huge economy. But their Personal GDP was low, cause their economy was big by the population. Which means Mexico is not a wealthy country. The other interesting fact that I found was that South Korea, which is my country has 11th largest economy in the world. This was interesting because South Korea's economy is huge compare to our land size. Our land size is one of the smallest in the world and we are over populated. Last interesting fact that I found was that Monaco's Personal GDP is the 2nd in the world. It was because Monaco does not have taxes, so the people who have lot of money establish company, run their own business and the banks(Bank taxes are very low in Monaco). Therefore this Personal GDP is mostly from the wealthy people who has things in Monaco. Additionally, Qatar's Personal GDP is the highest. This was not that interesting because their money is mostly from selling fossil fuels, mostly oil.
