Common mistake
Misunderstanding Causes of Uneven Development
Students often confuse the physical, economic, and historical causes of uneven development, attributing all disparities solely to economic factors.
To fix this, students should categorize causes into physical (like geography), economic (such as trade and industry), and historical (including colonialism) to better understand the complexity of uneven development.
