Sentence: The Colombian Coffee Company saw the sheer demand for authentic Colombian coffee but many of the brands were low quality and flawed so they started The CCC based out of Colombia creating new jobs and source their beans through local farms and pay above market price which helps grow the local economy and then The Colombian CoffeeCompany has seen their profits and demand for their coffee rise ever since they started.

Maps:

I decided to color a map of Africa for the major lack of very profitable and flourishing industries. Their 3 main industries include arts, film production, and music. While all of these industries are big in Africa the poor economy makes it hard for any industry to do well.

I decided to color a map of Russia because they rank as the  3rd largest oil producer in the world. The oil industry in Russia produces 11 million barrels per day trailing only the U.S. and Saudi Arabia. 

I decided to color a map of South America because of the agglomeration of industries that are housed there. These industries include a major transport equipment industry in Brazil, a large oil industry in Venezuela, and huge coffee industries in both Peru and Colombia.
