I chose two very different countries to demonstrate the differences between LDC and MDC countries. I chose Angola as my Lower Developed Country. By looking at the population pyramid, you can tell that the pyramid is fullest at the bottom indicating a healthy and consistent population growth. In 2025, and 2050, Angola is projected to have a higher population.
I chose Japan as my MDC country. Japan is a very developed country, and has been so for quite some time. The lifestyle in Japan is technologically advanced, and inhabitants of this country can enjoy a good lifestyle. Japan's population pyramid does not resemble Angola's at all. This diagram shows that Japan's pyramid influxes and has an irregular shape. This pyramid shows that the majority age is between 25 and 55 years of age, while 0-4 yr olds and 95-100 year olds have the lowest population. This indicates that within the next 50 years, Japan's population may decline. Population pyramids can demstrate a country's potential changes, and these two diagrams have shown that Angola's population will most likely experience an increase, while Japan, a highly developed country may have a decrease in population.

New York City
When I was in seventh grade, my family visited New York City. We stayed for an entire week and we had an absolutely fantastic time! We visited all the sites including the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge, Times Square, and Ground Zero. We also had the opportunity to attend 5 Broadway productions. We saw Thoroughly Modern Milly, Stomp, the Lion King, Mama Mia, and Beauty and the Beast. Attending those productions was amazing, and Im very glad I had the opporutnity to do so. We also attended a New York Knicks basketball game, and we had the opportunity to ride the subway and take a taxi ride. New York city has been my favorite place to visit and I am very glad I had the opportunity to do so. Visiting all the sites, and seeing the different culture was very eye opening and influential. I am very glad that I got to see the sights and have a good time, all the while learing and spending quality time with my family.
