Rich nations are those who either have an abundance of natural resources, such as oil, forest products, minerals, precious commodities...or the ability to produce for sale to other nations.
Poor nations are lacking in any or all of above.
Through the spreading of capitalism, poorer nations now can see a brighter future as they adopt many tried and true systems by which capitalism enriched the Western countries ( i.e. U.S.A., Great Britain, Europe, Japan).
One caveat, however, those nations like U.S.A. and Japan have huge debt, so their wealth is compromised by the enormous debt they carry.
With emergence recently of China and India taking on capitalism by storm, it could be a trend that can see these over populated nations become wealthier than those who carry too much debt.

Rich in what ? Money doesn't generate a harmonious society. You should simply travel and explore for yourself the differences. I can assure you that the poorer financially countries will inspire you spiritually far more than the like of UK or USA. In fact it is another world altogether. Hopefully, as with myself your whole sense of values will change forever and you will see the disgusting traits of consumerism and capitalism. Go and visit some poorer countries and when you return you will see what I mean and will find out where the demons really are ! Try some volunteer work in Asia,an orphanage for example. Hopefully then, you too will be a true Free Spirit !

The poor nations currency is being supported by the richer nations currencies. Although this diminishes the richer currency they continue to do this! Example the Chinese are supporting the US dollar and will continue to do so until they realize they are getting screwed in the process and then they will stop and the dollar will drop to an all time low in value!

I agree. because of the fact the black race has usually been exiled for almost 4 hundred years; plus segregation - that still exists to three quantity, social empathy of whites being adverse makes it even. yet, being in a distinctive social classification - prevents you from information what different social instructions are like when you consider which you're proof against the single you're. Larry is particularly ideal. we've those closet supremacists who're the comparable one's who smile on your face, yet call you a "N" as you turn around. regrettably, the rustic nevertheless has them, yet to show you how to already know actually the fact, persons are making a huge deal approximately it because of the fact he's a radical pastor who talks undesirable approximately white human beings. and of direction, you are going to have white human beings getting mad over the comments he has made. It has no longer something to do with Obama, different than the incontrovertible fact that Wright has been his pastor for 2 many years. And the media thinks that because of the fact he's been his pastor for see you later, that's what Obama particularly thinks approximately white human beings. My answer to that's who provides a rattling what they think of Obama thinks. comparable with Bush, i'm beneficial he theory two times approximately sending troops to New Orleans in decrease than 5 days whilst he knew this is populated with African American men, women and babies. So who cares. The objective is who can deliver the substitute?!?! OBAMA '08

More church attendance correlates to lower standards of living, due to lower rates of GDP growth.
Protection of free speech is very important. This leads to better government.
Copyright & patent rights are very important. This leads to greater technological innovation.
It also helps to have a strong military, as long as it doesn't control the government, but rather is controlled by the government.
A workaholic population is also very important. More work per week leads to higher rates of economic growth.
Also, high rates of investment/saving are very strongly correlated to high rates of economic growth.

Money. The richer nations have more than the poorer nations. Opportunity creates wealth. In the US we have unlimited opportunity and therefore some people have almost unlimited wealth.
