The features of economic backwardness of nations are the shortage of food, capital, technology, medical facilities, lack of higher educational amenities and increase in population etc.

The reasons for the backwardness of nations are:

  1. They were the colonies of **** nations. The Europeans established their power and rule in their colonial countries and exploited their natural resources and sent them to their mother countries.

  2. The Europeans did not give any attention towards the progress of their colonial countries. Instead of they destroyed their economic structure and left them economically backward. They hampered entirely the progress of those colonial countries.

Even today the colonial countries after they got independence, they could not achieve their economic progress because lack of sufficient capital to develop agriculture, industry, transport, communication, science education and health, etc.
