世界上最贫穷的五个国家:看后惊呆你
1. Eritrea
1. 厄立特里亚
It’s true that copper and gold are here for some of the people to mine, however, there are about 80% of the locals that are farmers and only 7 out of 10 people are able to read and write. This country is found on the borders of Ethiopia and Sudan which are along the Red Sea, and the farmers here struggle against continuous drought conditions and a serious shortage of working class which is induced by the military draft from the government. Because of Eritrea’s per capita GDP of $777, it’s very clear to see that it is one of the most impoverished nations in the world.
厄立特里亚有铜和金可供人们开采,但这里80%的当地人都是农民,拥有读写能力的人只有七成。该国紧靠红海,比邻埃塞俄比亚和苏丹。同时,这里的农民苦于长时期的干旱和劳动力的缺乏——因为许多人都被政府诱导服了兵役。厄立特里亚的国内人均生产总值只有777美元,我们就不难理解为什么它是世界上最穷的国家之一了。
2. Burundi
2.布隆迪
The state of Maryland and Burundi are roughly the same land mass, but Burundi has double the population. Across this country, 1 out of 10 Burundians are surviving on farming alone. With commodity costs and numerous droughts impacting the revenue that gets generated from the biggest crops, like coffee and tea, one of the most significant motives for why this country’s per capita PPP gross nationwide product of $640 is what deems it the 4th poorest country on earth. As well, only an alarming 2% or less of their population has electricity within their rural culture.
马里兰与布隆迪的国土面积大致相等,但是布隆迪的人口比马里兰的人口多一倍。放眼整个国家,十个布隆迪公民中就有一个是仅依靠种田过活的。日用品价格昂贵,加上长期的干旱,布隆迪的财政收入只能从咖啡,茶这样的农作物种中获得,布隆迪的公私合营的人均生产总值是640美元,这是导致布隆迪位列最穷国家第四名的原因。更加令人堪忧的是,在农村只有2%甚至更少的人可以用上电。
3. Zimbabwe
3.津巴布韦
Zimbabwe is a landlocked nation with $516 per capita PPP gross national product, making it the 3rd country that is least affluent in the world. Zimbabwe has its typical rich, natural African resources but has been subjected to a tumultuous decade of uNPRoductive economic strategies and war. Zimbabwe is chiefly an agrarian economy, but they go through drought after drought, which brings mayhem when they attempt to meet the crop demands. They mainly generate revenue through tobacco and grain. There is opportunity for economic growth in the mining trades for diamonds, coal, copper and gold.
津巴布韦是一个内陆国家,位列世界上第三穷。公私合营的人均生产总值只有516美元。津巴布韦典型拥有丰富的天然非洲资源,可是由于多年的战争以及不生产政策,动荡不安的津巴布韦依旧是一个以农业经济为主的国家。由于接连的干旱,津巴布韦在粮食自给上不断遇到挫折。在经济发展可以通过开采钻石,煤,铜和金的情况下,这个国家的财政收入依然以烟草和农作物为主。
4. Liberia
4.利比里亚
What might be shocking to many is that 2/3 of the Liberian population are surviving on $1 every day. This nation is nearly the size of Tennessee and has been shattered by civil wars while maintaining a per capita GDP of $490. Liberia is situated along the Atlantic coastline of Africa and has very suitable weather conditions for its primary industry of agriculture, with rice as its greatest crop. Liberia has the economic potential to take advantage of both its diamond mining and timber harvesting.
在利比里亚,全国人口的三分之二每天只有一美元去勉强生活,这一点绝对震惊四座。利比里亚的国土面积与田纳西几乎一致,但是在战争的摧残下,这个国家已经破败不堪,人均生产总值只有490美元。利比里亚在非洲的大西洋沿岸,农业是国家经济主要组成部分,并且气候舒适,适合发展农业,水稻是主要的粮食作物。如果利比里亚利用好钻石以及木材开采,经济一定可以发展起来。
5. Democratic Republic of Congo
5.刚果民主共和国
In accordance with Global Finance magazine, the Democratic Republic of Congo (previously known as Zaire) has ranked very last in GDP per capital for 2011. This is even the case regardless of their economic growth over the last decade. There is only $364 per person that is generated in Congo’s economic environment. This African country rests upon massive gold and coltan deposits as well as other natural resources. Congo is the 19th most populated nation in the world, but thanks to the corruption in the mining trade, employment prospects have been bound up and foreign buyers have been pressured to stay away.
在2011年《环球金融》杂志的国内生产总值榜单中,刚果民主共和国(扎伊尔)排名非常靠后。这个排名已经是近十几年来刚果民主共和国经济有所发展之后的结果了。在刚果现在的经济环境下,人均产值只有364美元。刚果有着大量金矿和钶钽铁矿,以及其他的自然资源的天然贮备。19世纪的刚果是人口密度最多的国家,但由于采矿中的腐败,劳务关系前景堪忧,外来买家也被拒之门外。
