Well a positive for "modernization", better worded as "westernization" would be that their economies would flourish, their wouldn't be as many rouge extremist organizations running around. But a major downside to this, which is why we are currently in the middle of a "war on terror" with them is because they don't want us there, they don't want to "westernize". They believe that it would violate their beliefs and islamist traditions, which it certainly would.

Positives include the amount of Oil some countries have . That makes the economy bring in more money .

Negatives, there still isn't a lot of technology for everyone so they can't connect to the rest of the world and possibly make the country better (improving speed )
