I learned a lot of things in the lesson, assuming that a country has a lot of people living in it than the government should provide the access, to food so that everyone would be equal and fed equally. However, it was completely different, China has such a big population, but they don't have the amount of food as North America. This turns out to be the exact same as Africa, they have a really big population but they don't have any access to resources. In the fair trade game many people changed, this is because people wanted to make money and win. I learned a lot of things from this because this is exactly what governments do to get all of their resources. Governments have to trade with other governments so that they get the supplies that are in need for their country.

It’s exactly like real life because if a country has oil and oil creates a lot of things, and that makes a lot of money. Other groups did not have a pencil to draw the shapes or paper in general, so they had to make trades to get what is needed. However, some people actually got scammed and some other people actually got things for really cheap and got a good deal. See the market place was also very difficult for people, because sometimes the market needs other supplies than what they had. For example there could be economic needs or economic profits, because if the squares are needed than the country will pay 2x more for it instead of its original price. As an alternative if there is too much circles than the market value for the circles will go down since there is too much of the
