Select one country from the dropdown menu that you think would be interesting to compare to the U.S. Describe at least six of the data measures for each country (the U.S. and your country of choice) and analyze what these statistics tell you about gender inequality in that society.
Using these statistics, compare each country to one another in terms of gender inequality by discussing the similarities and differences.
