Compose a well-developed paragraph defending to what extent the “rank size rule” is proven valid or invalid based upon the populations of this country’s five largest cities
Same results as in the United Arab Emirates. I find that in general the " rank size rule" works well, but its not a flawless design, for instance the answer ends up being in the general vicinity of the prediction but not exact and its off enough to be unreliable. I think it is an interesting concept, and if I were with out the internet for some reason I guess I could do the math but now all this is a hassle.
