    I think they call it developing countries now. I don’t think Mexico is considered developing but has free healthcare, who else are you talking about?

      First world = NATO

      Second world = Warsaw Pact

      Third world = non-aligned

      Developed world = rich countries

      Developing world = poor countries

      Global south = also poor countries, but with more emphasis on Africa and South America
