The etymological root of the binomial name Pinus is the old classical name for âPine treeâ. Flexilis is from the Latin meaning âpliableâ in reference to its leaves. The landscape architect may find Pinus flexilis âVanderwolfâs Pyramidâ useful as a compact upright coniferous tree. Once established this tree is drought tolerant. This tree is tolerant of exposed, windy sites.
The term industrialized country may be somewhat ambiguous, as industrialization is an ongoing process that is hard to define. The first industrialized country was the United Kingdom, followed by Belgium. Later it spread further to Germany, United States, France and other Western European countries. According to some economists such as Jeffrey Sachs, however, the current divide between the developed and developing world is largely a phenomenon of the 20th century.
Industrialization in Continental Europe. Industrialization arrived on the continent and in the United States later than in England, and developed in fits and starts, in contrast to its explosive origins in Britain. In 1830, the British level of industrialization was twice that of France, and was three times the French level in 1860. All other countries, with the exception of the United States, had fallen even further behind. Not all other countries industrialized at the same time.
