Its like playing game of whack a mole, and African countries are different from South American countries. The real Quiz is;

How does one even make correlation in such a structural modeling problem rooted in the "transferability" of spatial economics???

I think I should have paid more attention during Geography classes....lol

It’s like a game where you're trying to find the right angle to balance everything out. Just like in spatial economics, where each region has its unique characteristics, in the slope game, you have to adjust your strategy based on the terrain.
