Not Iphone, Iraq
The country I chose was Iraq. Iraq is a country in Asia surrounded by Iran, Jordan, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Turkey.
Iraq is quite a diverse country. First off they have a horrible economy. I think this because they had many wars and one is going on with people from their own. Those people formed a group called Isis. I think that I would be easier to fight them if they had more money. Their GDP is $14,100 while US GDP is $54,629.5. They also only make about 77.7B from exports and America makes 1.42T. They also have a Prime minister and a President while America has 1 president. The Prime minister has 2 assistants and is in charge of the government while the president is in charge of the state. Iraq also has the Parliament which is similar to the congress but the People on the Parliament has people serve for 4 year when people on the Congress can serve for 4-8 years. In my opinion I think this is a bad idea because then there would be new people each year meaning no experienced ones. One of the most important times in their history was when the dictator, Saddam Hussein, was president because he caused the Iran-Iraq war which cause quarter million deaths and billions in money. He also killed many people because of their race and if they didn't listen to him. These are some of the reasons why I decided to choose Iraq.

I really liked how you compared the US to Iraq so we can see how different they are and relate to Iraq as well. Ironically, the current wars that Iraq has been involved with were directly linked to the US-so we are partially to blame for their economy. I look forward to your presentation on this!
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job! In France the president appoints the prime minister too just like Iraq does! I learned a lot about Iraq, nice job!
ReplyDeleteI really liked your blog! Kenya and Iraq both don't have a great economy! They are also both still developing! Other than that they are very different! Overall I really liked your blog!
ReplyDeleteGood job! China doesn't have a Prime Minister. Iraq have a lot of different food, that probably not many people in China have heard of. I liked your presentation!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on your presentation. I learned a lot about Iraq. Madagascar and Iraq are alike because they both have a president and Prime minister. They are different because in Madagascar people speak Malagasy and in Iraq people speak arabic. Overall awesome job.

ReplyDeleteIsrael has a prime minister and president also! I didn't know a lot of these facts that you presented. Nor would I have known some because Israel doesn't really have anything in common but portions of both countries speak Muslim. Nice job!!!
ReplyDeleteI liked your presentation. Our countries aren't that similar but I liked how you `compared Iraq to the U.S and I liked the information on the war.
ReplyDeleteGood job on your presentation!! I learned a lot about Iraq. In Brazil, we don't have a prime minister. Instead, we have a president. I really liked that you compared the country to the US. Great job!!
ReplyDeleteGreat Presentation! In Jamaica, they also appoint the prime minister, but the president doesn't do it. Instead the governor-general does (Patrick Allen). Jamaica's GDP (24.28 billion) is also way less than the United States, but it is more than Iraq's. Jamaica and Iraq are not very alike but it is very cool to see how they contrast from each other.
ReplyDeletegood job! Italy and Iraq are not alike but they both have great info like I thought it was cool to know that they speak arabic and are muslim and more cool things that I didn't know. Over all Italy an dIraq do not have many things in common
ReplyDeleteNice job! Switzerland and Iraq have nothing in common but it was a great blog!
