View ProjectThe so-called BRICS nations, Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, have some of the fastest growing economies in the world. As countries develop, their GDP per capita and life expectancy tend to increase in sync. However, global events, and traits specific to certain nations can disrupt this relationship. In these figures, life expectancy increases as you move up the graph, and GDP increases as you move to the right. The size of the dot correlates to infant mortality. Ideally, a country wants to move towards the top right, increasing both life expectancy and GDP per capita, and decreasing infant mortality.
