Question

Which of the following describe correctly the Group of Seven Countries (G-7)?

• A. They are industrialised countries
• B. They are developing countries
• C. They are holding Atomic Bomb technology
• D. They are countries who can launch their own satellites

Hint:

Think about what economically links the G-7 nations, not their military or space capability.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Let's see which description correctly fits the Group of Seven (G-7) countries.

1. They are industrialised countries: This is correct, the G-7 is a forum of the world's most advanced, industrialised economies (US, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and Canada).
2. They are developing countries: This is incorrect, the G-7 nations are developed, not developing, economies.
3. They are holding Atomic Bomb technology: This is incorrect, not all G-7 members possess nuclear weapons; Japan, Germany, Italy, and Canada do not.
4. They are countries who can launch their own satellites: This is incorrect, satellite-launch capability is not the defining or common criterion for G-7 membership.

Since the G-7 is defined by its members' advanced industrial economies, "they are industrialised countries" is the correct description.
