The various factors that limit economic development and the division of labour, including geographical barriers, transportation costs, political obstacles, and market size limitations.

## Source Chapter
Book I, Chapter 3
## Context
Smith identifies multiple economic development constraints: frozen oceans preventing navigation, distant rivers limiting inland trade, political control over waterways obstructing commerce, and small market sizes preventing specialisation.
