Haiti..........Haiti isn't that much worse off now than they were before the earthquake.
With the exception of course of the death and injuries caused by the quake. My point is they all lived in cardboard make shift tents and housing before the earthquake. 95% of all Haitians had nothing to begin with, so they didn't lose much of anything with monetary value. That is the main thing that is hindering relief efforts, all this money is pouring in, but they needed this money before the quake. Unlike New Orleans and Mississippi, Haiti has no infrastructure to rebuild.
This according to the N.Y. Times anyway.
Africa has the greatest number of least-developed countries. These countries are characterized by low income, weak human development indicators, and high economic vulnerability. Africa is home to many nations facing challenges in terms of development and poverty alleviation.
According to the United Nations Human Development Index, Afghanistan is currently considered one of the least developed countries in Asia. It faces significant challenges such as political instability, conflict, poverty, and lack of access to basic services.
There are many Less Economically Developed Countries (LEDCs) worldwide, but the exact number can vary depending on the source or classification. The United Nations lists over 30 countries as Least Developed Countries (LDCs), which generally align with the concept of LEDCs.
LEDC stands for Less Economically Developed Country. It is a term used in geography to describe countries with low levels of industrialization, income per capita, and standards of living. These countries often face challenges such as poverty, inadequate infrastructure, and limited access to healthcare and education.
Underdeveloped countries are underdeveloped because they have little urbanization. If they were to urbanize and industrialize, they'd be considered industrializing countries, and would later be considered developed.
The poorest ones, especially the least developed countries.
Moldova.
Albania
I believe it's a toss up between Bolivia and Equador.

The five least developed countries include the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Niger, Burundi, Mozambique, and Chad.
Developed countries are countries that have lots of money and jobs
The least-developed countries in Europe are located in Eastern Europe. The five least-developed nations are Moldova, Macedonia, Ukraine, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Albania, who are all located in Eastern Europe.
Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) is currently the least developed and poorest former nation of Yugoslavia. Kosovo is truly the poorest nation within former Yugoslavia, however, Kosovo was an autonomous province and not a nation; it was part of Serbia.
Tuvalu is the poorest country as a whole as the country has the lowest GDP. However, the citizens of the Democratic Republic of the Congo earn the least on average.
Third world
The least developed and poorest part of Oceania is often considered to be the remote islands of Melanesia, particularly countries like Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands. These regions face significant challenges, including limited access to basic services, high poverty rates, and underdeveloped infrastructure. Economic activities are primarily based on subsistence agriculture, and political instability further hampers development efforts. The geographical isolation of many islands also complicates access to resources and markets.
