international finance, which is concerned with exchange rates between different currencies. Deciding the
rate for the international exchange of money is one of the most complex aspects of international banking.

Exports are either raw materials or manufactured goods. Raw materials are products of the land, such as
cotton, timber or rubber. Some raw materials, such as iron ore, come from mines. These raw materials are
often exported by the countries that produce them to other countries where they are made into manufactured
goods. Some countries produce food for export, for example, meat, sugar, or cereals such as wheat and
maize. These countries are agricultural countries. An agricultural country needs fertile land and a good climate.
