- discordance 11y agoGood point. The terms 'first/second/third world' are rough terms that came from the cold war. There is a rough consensus that first world are countries that aligned with the capitalist western axis, second world refers to former communist-socialist countries, and the third describes developing countries (Africa, Asia and LatAm).
