7 Poorest Countries in the World by 2015 GDP

7. Sierra Leone

Although the country is abundant with a rich amount of gold and diamonds, this country still ended as one of the poorest countries in the world. The country has gone through war that lasted for 10 years. The war left the country financially unstable. Add that to the fact that their current government is corrupt. The money that should go to the people’s benefits is not received at all. There are only a small percentage of people living in Sierra Leone benefit from gold and diamond excavations. Most people find other means to live.
