Core areas were those areas of the world economy typified by production of manufactured goods, control of shipping, monopoly of banking, and commercial services.  Core areas were located primarily in northwestern Europe: Britain, France, and Holland. Dependent zones were regions typified by production of raw materials, supply of bullion, plantation agriculture of cash crops produced by coercive labor systems. Dependent zones surrounded the European core including southern and eastern Europe, Asia, and the colonial discoveries of the European explorers.
