TECHNOLOGY AROUND THE WORLD

The purpose of this article is to gather information about the development of

countries around the world in terms of technology and generate additional
knowledge about new contributions over the years. The countries considered as
developed suffer a breakthrough in science and technology, while the
undeveloped countries suffer a decrease. Technology has an important role in our
lives besides; it qualifies the level of growth of each country too.

Africa is a continent in the south of Europe, east of America and west of Asia. It
is one of the richest continents and most developed with the exploitation of one
mine but their economic condition and the status of its inhabitants doesnt work
for consumption of electronic devices.
While a few kilometers from Singapore, located at the end of the Malayan
Peninsula between Malaysia and Indonesia, the situation is different. Singapore is
the most developed country in the world in terms of technology. They have been
highlighted for having a long history in technological renovations; besides, the
architecture is admirable and generates curiosity among visitors. One of the most
strategic countries for keeping sustainability and becoming an example for other
metropolis in the world.

In Latin America we continue consuming reused products but thanks to the world
we realize the capabilities of consumption that we have as a region. Little by
little we stopped being a technological dump. The trade and foreign investment
facilitate technology transmission with an inclination towards the capabilities
among countries. Also companies with great exposure to trade are subject to
more competitive pressures. Three countries with the best positioning in Latin
America are: Chile, Uruguay and Argentina.
The United States is a powerful nation and technologically the most advanced in
the world. The availability of land, weather diversity, navigable rivers, coastal
roads, and the wealth in natural resources facilitate the extraction of cheap energy
and all this contributes to have a fast industrialization. Nowadays, the countries
of the first world are those that take their technological development seriously.

In this graph we can see the development of technology in continents developed

and underdeveloped:

North America leading with a 38.2% they use technology to create

weapons and war material.
Europe with 28.8% they use technology for advance education.
Asia with 27.9% they use this branch for getting new technologies in
information, communication and increase their education.
Oceania with 1.3% and Africa with 0.7% are in the last position because
the inhabitants are in bad conditions and this affect for their development.

Based on the graph, Latin America, Africa and Oceania can improve their
technological infrastructure by using new technologies that generate new jobs
and opportunities for their inhabitants. They can improve education for teenagers
and provide them with a good future. Another solution is that the government
finds a shape so that every person has the same quality of life. In the case of
Africa, their inhabitants need new instruments in medicine, hospitals, schools,
wells, health improvements and thousands of more things.

As a conclusion, we see how technology takes over much of our life, turning us
into a society depending on electronic things. Now, countries need technology to
define the development of their state, but we must not belittle the good
contributions that this branch of science gives us. The end of it all is to archive a
chance in favor or against us.
