resultierend vs folgend

following

'folgend' and 'resultierend' can both point to something that comes after something else. The important difference is the reason. 'folgend' describes only the order: something comes afterward or next. 'resultierend' means that something arises from something else, so it is a consequence or result. That is why they can be confused when something happens later in time. If you only mean the order, use 'folgend'. If you want to show cause and effect, 'resultierend' fits better.
