What kind of country is Solomon Islands?

Solomon Islands is one of the least developed countries in the world, and its human development index is 0.6 10. Most people make a living by farming, fishing and planting, and the national economy is mainly based on planting, fishing and gold mining. Most manufacturing industries and petroleum products depend on imports. These islands are rich in undeveloped mineral resources, such as lead, zinc, nickel and gold.

Since the independence of Solomon Islands, the economy has gradually changed from a single economy in the past to a diversified economy including agriculture, fisheries, mining, forestry and tourism. Beef, grain and vegetables are basically self-sufficient. In recent years, the government has taken a number of development measures to promote land reform, improve management methods, actively attract foreign investment, effectively control inflation, and the economy shows signs of recovery.

Extended data:

There are many volcanoes and rivers in Solomon Islands, which are composed of two distinct terrestrial ecological zones. Most of these islands, together with bougainville island and Buka, which belong to Papua New Guinea, belong to the Solomon Islands rainforest ecological zone; St. Curuz is the main archipelago to the east of Solomon Islands, and it belongs to Vanuatu Rainforest Ecological Zone with the neighboring Vanuatu Islands.

These two ecological zones, together with the neighboring New Caledonia, Bismarck Islands, New Guinea, Australia and New Zealand, belong to the scope of the Australasian continental ecological zone. Compared with other islands, the volcanic activity in Solomon Islands is not frequent and intense, which will not seriously affect the production and life of local residents, so Solomon Islands is also known as the "lucky island".
