Question

List some of the similarities and differences in the imports and exports of China and UAE. Think of the history, geography or other factors covered this term.

Answer 1

China's economy is a lot bigger, and a lot more complex, than UAE's economy. China is an industrial powerhouse with over 1 billion people, and for this reason, China's imports and exports are very diverse. Exports are mostly manufactured goods like electronic components, appliances, automobiles, etc. While imports are also mostly manufactured goods, but also many raw materials like oil, natural gas, and copper.

UAE's economy is smaller and more simple. Exports are mainly oil, and also pearls, while imports are mainly manufactured goods, but also agricultural goods, due to the lack of arable land in UAE (Almost the entire country is a desert).
