maternal morality is basically the amount of deaths of pregnant women. maternal morality being high in certain countries can come from economic factors such as countries not being fit with the proper healthcare, not being able to afford the healthcare needed, etc.

Step-by-step explanation:

Maternal mortality is basically the annual number of female deaths as a result of pregnancy and other pregnancy related issues.

it is high in certain countries than others as a result of inadequate proper health care. Geographical related issues can also be a cause.
