Core Regions

Core regions refer to the central areas of a country or a global economy where political, economic, and cultural activities are concentrated. These regions typically have strong infrastructure, advanced industries, and higher population densities. They benefit from better resources and services, leading to increased productivity and innovation. In contrast, peripheral or less developed areas often lack these advantages, resulting in disparities in wealth and development. Understanding core regions helps explain global inequalities and the dynamics of urbanization, economic growth, and resource distribution.
