#2 Even though Papua New Guinea is located in the same region as Australia and New Zealand, why is it that Australia and New Zealand became technologically advanced and wealthy?

 I chose question number two and has found two reasons on why Papua New Guinea has less technology advance and wealth.

First reason is that Australian and New Zealand people are actually from England. The people there are English so this means their European. The British people traveled to Australia and New Zealand to trade for the whale's oil and skin. So, the government of England brought some goods to support them to have a better life. But, for the New Guinean they didn't have anyone to support them. They are actually Asian. Since they didn't travel out of their country they were stuck in New Guinea so, they had little knowledge about the outside world and the new technology. They were poor in their technology and poor in knowledge about the outside world they were behind a lot of information about the world. They needed to catch up and now the are still struggling.

My second reason is that the people in New Guinea are spending most of their time finding food and finding new ways to improve their life that they didn't have a good food supply.  Also they have only a few domesticated animals in their field and not as much crop. In the mornings the men has to go hunting with a bow and arrow while the women catches insects for protein and gather plants for vitamins. In Australia and New Zealand they domesticate a lot more animals such as cows, pigs, dogs, goats, ducks and chickens. They are able to grow more crops and import it to other countries and then earn some money which could help to buy more food to grow or some savings.

These are the two reasons on why Papua New Guinea has less technology advance and wealth than Australians and New Zealand people.
