Bangladesh
Bangladesh is well known to be an overpopulated, poorly governed country in poverty.
It has a GDP per capita of $429.26 per capita (2006), and a HDI (Human development Index) of 0.52.
The Gini index is 33.4, showing that its income is distributed in equally. Despite this, their unemployment rate is 2.5% fairly good compared to other developing countries.
It’s population growth rate is 2.022%, with a fertility rate of 3.08 children per woman. Because of the overpopulation, it’s poverty population is 3.49% of the world’s poor, 5th out of 80 nations and the percentage of the population below the poverty line is 45%.
Bangladesh has a low per capita income and poverty population that shows no improvement. Also its population is ranked 7th in the world at 147,365,352. The dependency ratio per working-age population is 0.64, saying that there are 6.4 dependent people per 10 working class.

Hey Sayaka!
I think my country, Somalia, is worse off in some aspects. For example, the growth rate of Somalia is a little bit higher than that of Bangladesh. But the GDP per capita of Bangladesh is lower than Somalia’s. The percentage of the population living under the poverty line in Somalia and Bangladesh are 2% apart.
HEY SAYAKA!
I like your post, esp. your embedded YouTube video. The abundant information you presented was interesting, especially the one with 3.08 children per woman. I was actually about to do Bangladesh as my country.
