This is a great idea for a post. You guys are really being intentional about addressing many of the new topics assigned to you. However, your grammar, lack of clarity, and limited information leaves the reader without a good understanding of the situation. Check your spelling and enlarge the graph because the reader cannot see it. You have used a lot of social studies terms like "free market economy" and "GDP". Make sure you know what those mean and explain them in both your post and presentation. Lastly, how do these facts relate the the real-life living situation of Somalians everyday? Do the citizens participate actively in helping the economy through employment, tax revenue, and large business? Do they depend on foreign aid and investment?
