gun, germs and steel

Papua new guinea has less resources and has less technology and less larger animals and poorer types of food.  These are some reasons why NZ and Australia are more rich.


NZ and Australia larger islands than Papua new guinea when England ship prisoners over and put them in jail normally after getting out of jail they would stay in Australia and raise kids and buy a house and live there instead of going back to england. NZ and Australia have more and different resources than papua new guinea.For example NZ have different animals that help pull things and produce different things. NZ also have better machines and more wealthy people. They also have more population so if they have more population they have more jobs so things can get done. The bad thing is that there is more people to feed and land for them to live.  In Papua new guinea there are more native people than white people because when they came it was a poor country and they didn't need anything so they didn't bother put up comuities there because they weren't interested in the island and they also didn't get along with them.


In Papua New Guinea the type of food they could grow was not as good as the crops grown in Europe. This meant they had to spend most of their time working to get enough food to survive. Also Papua New Guinea did not have the right type of animals to help them farm. In Europe they grew wheat and had cattle,horses,cows and sheep. The People in Europe were living in the right place to get ahead. The people in Europe got more technology and they went to settle in NZ and Aus.
