    third world nation

    Not really a valid term any more/ As it never ment what folks used it for.

    1st world was linked to NATO 2nd world linked to Warsaw Pact. Everyone else was 3rd world.

    Developing Nation or Underdeveloped nation would be more accurate. Although not less insulting.
