Guns, Germs, and Steel

Today in class we began to watch Guns, Germs, and Steel. This video was about the development of countries depending on the geography or location. Jered Diamond came up with this theory. He thought that domesticating plants and animals advances development. The only way for a country to progress must be to have an abundance of food. Some people were convinced it was religion or God to convince people to convert to Christianity. There are haves and have nots. The haves are the things that developed places and people have. The have nots are the things that under developed places don't have.  This video began in Papua New Guinea. It was crazy to see how different people in undeveloped places live compared to developed places. Then a man named Yali asked, " Why do white men have so much more cargo than New Guineans?" This is where we left off.
