Chart of Nations Project

Chart of Nations

Working in partners, create an Excel chart of the nations listed in chapter 18 (you can use this for which ever countries you are currently studying). Include your first names in the file name. 

The chart should include eight columns of rankings:

1. area
2. population
3. per capita GDP
4. population density
