about the "backward" country:
?Just a decade ago, Iraq boasted one of the most modern infrastructures and highest standards of living in the Middle East. The world?s second largest oil producer, it had in recent decades used oil revenues for ambitious projects and development programers, as well as to build one of the most powerful armed forces in the Arab world. It had established a modern, complex health care system, with giant hospitals built on Western models and using the latest equipment. It had constructed sophisticated water-treatment and pumping facilities. It had an extensive school and university system.?

DEVELOPMENT. In general terms, Iraq has once again become a poorly developed country. In 1990, it ranked 55th on the scale of the Human Development Index (HDI) established by the UNDP; in 1995, it had fallen to the 106th rank, and in 2000 to the 126th rank.
