GDP

Today in Human Geo, Jevan taught the class. We went over the answers to the CIA Scavenger Hunt. I had most of the answers right, but some I had incorrect.  We talked about what GDP is. GDP is gross domestic product or value of all final goods and services produced within a nation in a given year (amount of money the entire country gets in a year). America’s GDP is $50,000. The country with the highest GDP per capita was Qatar. Their GDP is $100,000! I thought that this is crazy. Qatar is a very small country in the Middle East. We also talked about Syria. The leader in Syria is killing men, women, and children. I think that this is so sad and unfortunate. A lot of Syrians are trying to get out of Syria. They are all going to Turkey, because it is the closest place. Syrians are leaving Syria on a push force.
