Q3
Answer is very well structured and nicely represented. But it lacks some dimensions. Human development also includes education/literacy, health etc. So while writing answers please do mention indices for these parameters. Why because some nations have very high economic development and low social development and overall high HDI. So when mention literacy, health status approximately.
Most important is world map showing economic-development and human development. Draw this map.
