First country: Liberia

   Liberia is located on the West coast of African. There are rubber trees, cocoa, farm land, and lots of gold. Choosing Liberia was a good choice because it has great natural resources.

   No, Liberia is not the largest country among the other countries that I chose. It is one of the smallest countries in the world with almost 4,195,666 people living in Liberia.When you compare Liberia and India population and size, Liberia is not even half of India population and its size. Liberia is growing rapidly after the last civil war in 2003. From 2015-2016 the population grew from three point five million to 4,195,666 plus living in Liberia. Liberia is Both urbanized and rural. Some countries like Nepal and North Korea have more agriculture like Liberia.
