Is your nation first world or third world?

Postby Zaldakki » Wed Dec 16, 2015 9:16 pm

Using the post Cold War definition, of course.

Zaldakki is a first world nation, except in the poverty-stricken city of Bundok.

Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.

First-world, even after the cold-war. Is an economy roughly the size of RL United Kingdom and a GDP per capita with a size in between RL Norway and RL USA enough of an indicator?

We DO accept immigrants from third world countries. In fact, we might celebrate next year's Christmas or the year after that, thanks to Filipino workers in Verdiga. :p
Republic of Verdiga

This nation USES NS Stats, EXCEPT ON THE FOLLOWING: population, economy, taxes (but it's close), safety (we're a tad safer), corruption
This nation is Sweden with a sizeable portion of Japan and Monster Girl Encyclopedia, as well as a bit of Touhou.
The United States of America is too mainstream.
Pro: Democracy, Libertarianism, Nordic Model, Sweden, Japan, Israel/Palestinian Harmony (I am a dreamer)

Technically speaking Second World, but due to our isolationist nature we aren't exactly bound to such words.

If we're going by the Cold War definition of first and third world nations, then Carolina would be first world nation. However, Carolina would be a first world nation in contemporary definitions as well.
Pro: Democracy, left-libertarianism, Keynesian economics, centrism, social democracy, free market, capitalism.
Neutral: Monarchism, conservatism, liberalism, socialism.
Anti: Totalitarianism, right-libertarianism, laissez-faire economics, fascism, communism, single-party state, state controlled economy.

By the Cold War definition, definitely First World. We are unsure regarding modern day interpretations of the term.
