Challenges and Solution

Challenge: - When picking a country in the Geographic map's details, 1 unknown value
appeared, and it was unclear which location it may be.
Solution: - By selecting 1 unknown value and selecting Edit Location, I was able to
manually insert South Korea.

Challenge: - I was unable to establish a connection between the country and the
Wikipedia website.
Solution: - I selected Country in detail from secondary data rather than primary data, so
I was not able to link country by Income to Wikipedia.

It was successfully linked after picking a country from primary data.
