    I have noticed that there is a lot of confusion about the concept of "first world / third world". This definition was created during the cold war to define US and allies (first world), The Soviet world (second world) and then all non-aligned countries such as Finland, Switzerland, Sweden etc. (third world).
    This concept is often misunderstood and used as a ranking of countries, in reality it was not originally created for that

    Yes, but the concept has changed throughout the years. You would not call Switzerland a 3rd world country today, would you?

    I beg your pardon? This is a completely legal private forum open to public. It lives by it members, not by being ignored or unknown.

    True.
    This discrimination in first/second/third world was created in the time of cold war and is now considered outdated. It is not clear at all what the term means today: what are the third world countries? Is there a ranking? Based on what?
    In reality it is a term currently used in a derogatory way for some nations and on the contrary, used in a presumptuous way by Americans and Europeans to define themselves.
    It would be better to avoid it

    Too much political comments had to be deleted.
