South Africa is the most economically developed country in the African continent. It has significant reserves of minerals, including copper, coal (80% of manganese and iron ore). Gold production is declining, previously the country took first place, but now falls behind China, Australia, Russia and others, while still remaining in the top ten. The country has developed assembly production of cars and, according to this indicator, it holds the first place in Africa. About 200 thousand cars a year are exported to Europe. Also, South Africa is a global supplier of precious stones and metals.

The leading direction of the British economy is the service sector. The UK provides 10% of the world's export of services, including banking, brokerage, advisory and programming services. The second most important sector of the UK economy is industry: mining (2.2% of GDP) and manufacturing (14.7% of GDP). Mechanical engineering, transport, industrial goods and chemicals are the main directions of the country's exports. Oil production since the 1970s brought substantial profits in trade and allowed the country to reduce imports of petroleum products.
