Yeah ok so let's get into this episode now starting off with the country of Spain
Spain this is officially known as the kingdom of Spain and it's located in southwestern Europe the
1214 kilometer border that Spain shares with Portugal is actually the longest uninterrupted
border within the European Union and Spain is a democracy under a
Constitutional monarchy and Spain is also the 14th largest
Economy in the entire world by nominal GDP
Looking at the population of Spain that number is at forty six point four zero
million now Spain has experienced a lot of
Increase in its population growth rate since the start of the 20th century
And this was due to the boom in the industrial sector of Spain and even more so in the 1960s and 70s
When you look at the population density?
It's at 90 people per square kilometers in Spain and its land area is at five hundred and five
thousand nine hundred and ninety two square kilometers
The capital of Spain is the city of Madrid now when we look at the life expectancy of Spain
It's actually the highest in all of Europe life
Expectancy is seventy nine point six years for males and eighty five point six years for females
Which averages to a total life expectancy of eighty two point six years now Spain ranks fifth in the world for life
Expectancy according to the w-h-o report that was published in the year 2013 now
I want to introduce the country of Portugal so Portugal is one of the oldest independent
On earth and Portugal is known as a very popular destination for people all around the world
With great weather pretty much all year Portugal is a very developed country with a high income economy a developed market
And high living standards, and it has one of the best road networks in the entire world
It's ranked as the most peaceful country in the European Union and third in the world
The official name for Portugal is the Portuguese Republic and the population sits at?
10.32 million the population density of Portugal is a hundred and eleven point seven five people per square
Kilometers and Portugal ranks ninety six in the world as far as population
Density is concerned the land area of Portugal is at ninety two thousand ninety square kilometres making it the 111
largest countries in terms of landmass alone and for the life expectancy in
Portugal that number is eighty one point five two when we average out the male and the female life expectancy
Now I want to move into dollars economy
And the money the currency used in Spain is a euro and that's exactly the same for Portugal Spain is a 17th largest
export economy in the entire world
During the last five years the exports of Spain have increased at an annual rate of one point seven two percent now
According to Spain's GDP in the year 2016 that number was at one point to three trillion US dollars
And that was thirty six point three
Thousand per capita when we examined the highest exports in Spain that subset cars at thirty five point five billion dollars
vehicle parts at ten billion dollars refined petroleum at seven point eight nine billion dollars and for the largest imports in Spain
Crude petroleum is at eighteen point seven
Billion dollars cars are at eighteen point three billion dollars and vehicle parts is at sixteen point six billion dollars
Portugal is a 40th largest export economy in the entire world and in 2016 Portugal exported
54 point seven billion dollars and imported
67 point 1 billion dollars and the expert partners of Portugal are Germany Spain France UK Italy and the US
Portugal's GDP is a total of
204 dollars and the GDP per capita is thirty point six thousand dollars stood out looking at
Portugal's exports their highest exports comes from vehicle parts at two point six seven billion dollars
Then we have refined petroleum at two point two four billion dollars and cars are at one point nine six billion dollars
That's where the imports cars are at four point four nine billion dollars crude petroleum
Is at four point two nine billion dollars and vehicle parts are at two point four billion dollars?
So what are the living costs like when we compare Spain and Portugal well to do that?
I'm gonna look at the capital cities of both countries and see which one costs more or less to live in
Now looking at the capital cities the food in Madrid Spain is 13 percent higher than Portugal housing is
17% higher clothing is 9% cheaper transportation is 8 percent more expensive
Personal care is 9 percent less and entertainment is 5 percent more
So the cost of living in Madrid Spain is 9 percent higher than Lisbon Portugal and the final thing
I want to look at is the debt of these countries so Spain's national debt is one point three seven trillion
Dollars and the debt per citizen is twenty nine thousand six hundred and twenty one dollars
Portugal's debt is a lot less at two hundred ninety five billion dollars and his debt per citizen is pretty close at a little over
Twenty eight thousand dollars, so guys let me know down below in the comments section which country
