Development of World Conclusions
1) In the 1800s, all countries were poor and sick, with very low income and on
average, dying before the age of 40
2) As time went on and the industrial revolution began, most western countries
started to get wealthier and healthier, while the African and Asian countries stayed
poor and sick
3) In the late 1900s, the African and Asian countries started to catch up with the
Western countries and now in the 2000s all the countries are more closer together
in wealth and health
