Afghanistan
Female education is a major problem in Afghanistan because there are many groups that oppose it and then they attack the schools.
Wealth and Poverty
Of all the people in the world, the richest 1% of these people own 39.9% of the of the world's household wealth. These individuals are worth almost $515,000. The other 99 percent on average are worth under $150,000. This explains inequality because the amount of land or money that a person has should not define how much money they are worth. Everyone is priceless, meaning that there is no set of money that a person should pay for one another. No one can be replaced by a person that is the same as them.
