MEDC and LEDC -- How does economic development affect population?

Today you will be picking 2 countries to follow and study as a year-long case study. The criteria for picking 2 countries:
  1. One country must be an MEDC; the other country an LEDC
  2. You cannot pick the same country as someone else in class
  3. Ideally, you should consider 2 countries that are not in the same geographic region (or not in the same continent) 
​
Your first task after picking your 2 countries is to compare population pyramids of the two countries. Populationpyramid.net

After that, begin looking at their economic develop.  Find a country profile for both and either make notes or print out a country profile for both countries to add to your binder. You will study this country during each unit so that you have a more systemic understanding of the factors that shape the people, places and environment of this country. 
Consider G-SPICE for each country:
G- Geography
S - Social/Society
P - Political
I - Intellectual/Innovation (also education)
C - Cultural
E - Economic
​
