    • Zambia is in the African continent, towards southern Africa. Zambia is to the south of DRC, east of Angola ,west of Malawi and north of Zimbabwe.
  • 3 development indicators that show Zambia is less developed:
    • Population growth rate is 2.9%
    • Average life expectancy is 50
    • The HDI is 0.43
    • Stable political system: Zambia has a peaceful democracy, meaning everyone is in agreement. Holding elections every few years, and little political unrest, giving a chance to develop. The stable political system also allows companies to have a higher risk of succeeding.
    • Attractive investment incentives: companies investing in Zambia dont pay tax for the first 5 years. This is an advantage as countries are likely to trade with Zambia again.
