Fucking retards don't know what the term means.
It doesn't mean "a shitty country".
I'm too lazy to write this, have a chatgpt summary:
The terms First World, Second World, and Third World originally had nothing to do with wealth or development. They came from the Cold War (roughly 1947–1991) and described political alliances.
Here's what they originally meant:
Term Original Meaning Examples
First World Countries aligned with the United States and its allies (capitalist democracies) United States, Canada, United Kingdom, France, Japan, Australia
What a
Second World Countries aligned with the Soviet Union (communist states) Soviet Union, East Germany, Cuba, Poland, Czechoslovakia
Third World Countries that were not formally aligned with either side India, Yugoslavia, Egypt, Indonesia, many African nations
What a third world country is; is a historical term. It can't change based upon your feelings or what you make it up to be. This whole thread is retarded.
