I want to introduce in this episode is India India is located in South Asia
And it's the seventh largest country in the entire world by area and the second most populous country behind
China the Republic of India was established in January
1950 after it gained independence from the British Commonwealth in 1947 and proclaimed a new
Constitution since then India has existed as a federal republic consisting of 29 states and 7 union territories
The current population of India is 1.25 billion people
So that's one of every six people on the planet live in India
The country has doubled in size in just 40 years and is expected to pass China as the world's most
Populated country in the next couple decades with that
The population density of India is 380 7.9 people per square kilometer
Which ranks it at 31st in the entire world for population density
India's total land area is million two hundred and eighty seven thousand five hundred and ninety square
Kilometers and its capital city is a city of New Delhi now, I want to introduce the United Kingdom
So the United Kingdom is made up of England Scotland Wales and Northern Ireland and it's an island nation in
northwestern Europe, the population of the United Kingdom is considered an
Example of the population that has undergone the demographic transition
That is the transition from a typical pre-industrial
population with high birth rate and mortality rates and only slow population growth through a stage of falling mortality and
Faster rates of population growth to a stage of lower birth and mortality rates with again lower rates of population growth
Historically British people were thought to be descended
Mainly from the different ethnic backgrounds that settled there before the 11th century
pre-celtic
Celtic Anglo Saxon Viking and
Norman the population of the United Kingdom sits at a total of sixty six point five seven million and the UK is the world's
21st largest country by population
the United Kingdom is also currently growing at a rate of
0.6. One percent per year its total population density is
274 point zero eight people per square kilometre and the UK has a total land area of
242 thousand nine hundred square kilometres and its capital city is London
Alright, so that was a brief introduction of both of these countries now
I want to take a look at the type of money that these countries are
Using so India uses the Indian rupee and how that compares to the u.s
Dollar is one Indian rupee equals zero point zero one six US dollars in the UK
They use the British Pound and one British Pound equals one point four zero US dollars now, let's take a closer
Look at the economy. The economy of India is a developing mixed economy. So what does that mean?
It means that it's an economical structure in which both government and private
individuals exercise economic control
It is a world's sixth-largest economy by nominal GDP
And the third largest by purchasing power parity on top of that India is the 18th largest export economy in the entire
world according to the latest numbers
India's total GDP according to the latest numbers is
2.2 six trillion dollars and that brings its GDP per capita at six point five seven
Thousand dollars in terms of the total exports based on the latest estimates India exported
256 billion dollars its top exports are refined petroleum
diamonds as well as jewelry when we look at the
Imports of India the latest numbers indicate that India imported three hundred and forty four billion dollars making it the 14th largest
Importer in the world and it stopped imports our crude petroleum gold as well as diamonds
moving on to a closer examination now of the UK's
Economy in the 18th century the UK was the first country to industrialize and during the 19th century
It had a dominant role in the global economy accounting for 9 point 1 percent of the world GDP in the year
1870 it is a sixth largest national economy in the world measured by nominal gross domestic product is a ninth largest
measured by purchasing power parity and the 19th largest measured by GDP per capita
comprising 3.9 percent of the world's GDP
it's also the second largest economy in the European Union by both metrics the GDP of the United Kingdom sits at
2.6 two trillion dollars and that takes its GDP per capita at forty two point six thousand dollars
the latest estimates show that the UK
Exported four hundred and four billion dollars making it the tenth largest
Exporter in the entire world and UK's top
Exports are cars packaged medicaments and gas turbines in terms of the imports
The latest numbers show that UK imported six hundred and twenty five billion dollars and that makes it the fourth largest
Importer in the world. So what are the top imports? Well, those are gold cars and packaged medicaments
Alright, so we talked about the money and the economy
Well, let's take a look at the meat and potatoes, you know, the military power of both of these nations
India is one of the most powerful military nations in the entire world
India really seems to be modernizing its military and its nuclear capabilities keeping an eye on China
But without all being said India ranks fourth on the list of most powerful military nations. The manpower available in India is
616 million people and they have 1 million 360
2,500 active personnel and the personnel in reserve they have two million eight hundred
forty-four thousand seven hundred and fifty for the UK UK has the second largest budget in NATO and the largest in the
European Union and the fifth largest in the world and it's one of only five countries that meets NATO's
Guidelines to spend 2 percent of GDP on his defence budget there was considerable debate towards the end of 2017
When military chiefs in the UK were pressing for a rise in the defence budget due to the UK being more vulnerable
than ever to threats from
Increasingly aggressive Russia as well as extremist terrorist groups the UK boasts a total manpower of 30 million
And they have 150
1175 people as active personnel and 4 reserve personnel that number sits at 80
1500 now I want to look at how both of these countries their army their Air Force as well as your Navy match up when
we look at them side-by-side looking at India's total army strength they have
4426 combat tanks six thousand seven and four armored fighting vehicles
292 rocket projectors seven thousand four hundred and fourteen towed artillery and four self-propelled artillery. That number is at
290 for the UK they have
249 combat tanks
5948 armoured fighting vehicles 42 rocket projectors
138 told artillery and 89 self-propelled artillery in terms of airpower India has
676 fighter aircrafts they have 809 attack aircrafts
857 transport aircrafts
323 trainer aircrafts and the total helicopters that they have in their possession is
666 and total attack helicopters set at 16 for the UK
They have 88 fighter aircrafts 168 attack aircrafts
337 transport aircrafts 329 trainer aircrafts
347 total helicopters and their attack helicopters total is at 39 now
Let's see. What there Navis have to offer for India they have
295 total naval assets India has a total of 139 patrol craft
Aircraft carriers are at 3 they have 14 frigates 11 destroyers 15 submarines 23 Corvettes and 6 mine warfare
Vessels for the UK. They have a total of 76 total naval assets the UK has 4 patrol crafts two aircraft carriers
13 frigates six destroyers and 11 submarines and finally
They have 15 mine warfare vessels the total defence budget for India equals
51 billion dollars and in the UK that number sits at
Approximately 45 billion pounds per year on defense
Okay, so that was a military comparison
The last thing I want to take a look at is the cost of living in both of these countries
Which country is more expensive which country is cheaper for this episode?
we're going to be comparing the capital cities of
London England as well as New Delhi India when you look at living in London UK
Compared to Delhi India food is a hundred and twenty-two percent more expensive in London
Housing is three hundred and seventy eight percent more expensive
Clothing is forty five percent more transportation is four hundred and sixteen percent more expensive
Personal care is a hundred and eighty percent more an entertainment is one hundred forty seven percent more expensive than in India
So in total the cost of living in London is two hundred and fifty two percent more expensive
Than if you're living the capital of Delhi, India
But when we compare the national debts India has a total national debt of 1.1 trillion u.s
Dollars and India's total debt as a percentage of the GDP is forty-nine point one zero
Percent the total national debt for the UK is at one point three nine trillion u.s
Dollars and the UK's debt as a percentage of the GDP is eighty three percent
Okay, guys
