The term "third world country" originated during the Cold War to describe countries not aligned with NATO or the Communist Bloc. It is often used today to refer to countries with lower GDP, less industrialization, and lower standards of living compared to developed countries. Factors such as poverty levels, healthcare access, education, and infrastructure play a role in classifying a country as third world.
