Drag and drop to identify the factors contributing to south asia high poverty rates. each phrase may be used once or not at all

South Asia's extreme poverty is due to several factors, some are:

Population

Health

Administration

Education

Food Security

Recession

Discrimination

Natural Disasters

- Population is the largest reason why South Asia has extreme poverty. Over half of the world's population lives in Asia. For example, there are almost a billion people in India alone. That is 3x the population of the U.S. Consider further that India is only 1/3 the size of the U.S. Their population is also growing at a faster rate, as well. This also contributes to scarcity of goods.

The unequal treatment of women also contribute to high poverty rates in South Asia. 30% of adults are illiterate, and it is hard to make a good living if you can't read. Women have it even harder. Only 62% of women are literate, compared to 77% of men. This makes it even harder for women to be higher educated and make money.

Another way women's unequal treatment in South Asia contributes to poverty rates is health. Women and children make up the highest percentage people with malnutrition - almost 70%. When you are not fed properly, you can't have a proper education or life.

freeborn women in ancient rome were citizens (cives), but could not vote or hold political office. because of their limited public role, women are named less frequently than men by roman historians. but while roman women held no direct political power, those from wealthy or powerful families could and did exert influence through private negotiations. exceptional women who left an undeniable mark on history range from lucretia and claudia quinta, whose stories took on mythic significance; fierce republican-era women such as cornelia, mother of the gracchi, and fulvia, who commanded an army and issued coins bearing her image; women of the julio-claudian dynasty, most prominently livia (58 bc-ad 29), who contributed to the formation of imperial mores; and the empress helena (c.250–330 ad), a driving force in promoting christianity.

women in the ancient greek world had few rights in comparison to male citizens. unable to vote, own land, or inherit, a woman’s place was in the home and her purpose in life was the rearing of children. this, though, is a general description, and when considering the role of women in ancient greece one should remember that information regarding specific city-states is often lacking, is almost always from male authors, and only in athens can their status and role be described in any great detail. neither are we sure of the practical and everyday application of the rules and laws that have survived from antiquity. we do know that spartan women were treated somewhat differently than in other states. for example, they had to do physical training like men, were permitted to own land, and could drink wine.
