Since this week in class we learned about Less Developed Countries, and will be starting a project on the country we have chosen I thought I'd do a little background search. I will be doing my global project on Ethiopia. These are just some quick facts about Ethiopia but I can't wait to research it more and learn the more economical side of the country.

I did also did some research for my country over the weekend. My country is Uganda. I liked the videos that we watched in class because it showed me that I am so lucky. I feel so bad for the people that have to live off of one dollar a day. It makes me want to find a good way to help them and maybe even help them by donating money. I'm excited to do more research and find out as much as I can about my country.
