Uganda Developed or Undeveloped?

Is Uganda a developed or developing country? The country that I’m doing is Uganda. I think that this is a developing country. Why is this a developing country? Because this country has more agricultural production rather than industrial. This is one way to tell because a developed country would have more industrial production and more services and a developing country is identified as a country who has more agricultural production like farming. This country is agricultural because it accounts 42% of GDP. The population characteristics also play a role in identify whether a country is developed or developing. The population density of Uganda is 140 people/sq. km. Canada’s population density is 3.40 people/sq. km. Comparing to Canada’s, Uganda’s population density is a lot higher. The literacy rate is also a factor. If the literacy rate of a country is low then the birth rate will be high because people in that country will not have much education and thus the population of that country will be high with more children than elders. The literacy rate of Canada is 99% which means this country has excellent education and the birth rate is low (10.28 births/1,000 population). The literacy rate of Uganda is 66.8% which is lower than Canada’s. Since the literacy rate is low, there will be a higher birth rate (47.38 births/ 1, 000 population). This will result in a high population for Uganda. The literacy rate can also affect the life expectancy of people in a country. If people in a country are well educated they know more on how to take care of their health and can live a healthy lifestyle while people in a country are not well educated or not educated at all then they don’t know much on how to take care of their health and live a healthy lifestyle. Canada’s life expectancy for people is an average of 81.48 years. The literacy rate is also high so that means people are living a healthy lifestyle and live longer. In Uganda the life expectancy is 53.45 years which is
