The two countries with the best status in Europe, why is one developed and the other poor?

The best countries in Europe are Britain and Portugal. Unfortunately, Portugal's economic development has declined and its population has exceeded 100 million. Now it is getting poorer and poorer. The strength of any country is inseparable from its population, and it also belongs to the country with the best geographical position in Europe. Britain has been developing steadily, while Spain's economic backwardness has directly led to immigration. Portugal is no longer beautiful or even poor.

First, it is also surrounded by the sea. The rapid development of British economy has promoted the continuous improvement of local economic level.

Among European countries, Britain really belongs to a country with a better geographical position. It is surrounded by the sea, which reduces the baptism of more wars. Therefore, while others are worried about war, Britain is constantly expanding its territory and developing. Therefore, Britain's economic foundation is very good, and with the continuous development in the later period, Britain is now at the forefront of Europe. A developed economy will naturally attract more immigrants. With the increase of population and the development of science and technology, Britain will continue to prosper, GDP will continue to increase and become a developed country.

Second, the slowdown of economic development has led to the continuous loss of Portuguese population, and now he is not as prosperous as before.

Portugal, which also has less civil war, was a big aggressor country in history, but now it is really not as good as before; Due to the busy war, Portugal's economic foundation is not good, and the country has not paid too much attention to the development of science and technology and economy, which has led to the decline of the national economy. When residents found the country's economic downturn, a large number of people emigrated. The continuous passage of population has led to the decline of Portugal's economy and even poverty, which is in obvious contrast with Britain.

Although both belong to countries with good geographical location, it is a pity that Portugal has become a poor country because of population loss.
