India, China, and Brazil represent three fundamentally different development models. China's export-led manufacturing boom, India's services-driven growth, and Brazil's commodity-dependent economy have produced divergent outcomes. This comparison tracks GDP growth, GDP per capita, and population trends to illustrate how these paths have played out since 2000.
