Figures 1-2 and 1-6 rely on data from 2010, and Figure 1-5 relies on data from 2005, to map worldwide trade, migration, and FDI. Updated data for migration and FDI were not available at the time this chapter was written, but it is available for worldwide trade. In this question, you are asked to update the numbers for world trade shown in Table 1-1.

a. From this table, what is the total amount of trade within Europe? What percentage is this of total world trade?

c. What is the total amount of trade within the Americas (i.e., between North America, Central America, South America, and within each of these regions)? What percentage of total world trade is this?
d. What is the total value of exports from Europe and the Americas, and what percentage of the world total is this?
e. What is the total value of exports from Asia, and what percentage of the world total is this?
f. What is the total value of exports from the Middle East and the Commonwealth of Independent States,13 and what percentage of the world total is this?
g. What is the total value of exports from Africa, and what percentage of the world total is this?
h. How do your answers to (b) through (h) compare with the shares of worldwide trade shown in Table 1-1?
