Those were categorized in the first world countries included America, West Europe and other capitalist states in Europe while the second world countries included those of the Soviet Union, Russia and the communist, but the third world countries included those that either amalgamate to the first or second world countries such as Africa and Asia.

The third world countries can also be called LDCs – Less Develop Countries. The third world countries battle with different economic obstacles, political instability and others. Those challenges are centered on them. These countries were still struggling with the problems, they couldn’t curb them i.e. persisting. They became attribute to these countries.

THE VICIOUS CIRCLE OF POVERTY

A particular confinement that caged most countries in terms of their economic development. Most third world countries always found themselves in this circle. The reasons are because most of them are not innovating, creativity and technological develop. They continue to apply the same method and get the same result. But for change they need to eradicate those method using before. In case of production, most LDCs usually have low investment from there, capital deficiency and the demand also low. They also have little income and demand. It is impossible for their capitalist to make more than his production.

LOW RATE OF CAPITAL ACCUMULATION

This is the amount that a capital makes from their investment as profit which is directly added to the capital. Most LDCs saves their money not mainly for investment but for consumption’s sake. Many of them are not expanding due to they fail to accumulate.

Most first and second world countries always look for quality among their little population such as level of interaction, level of communication with customers etc. Most developing countries look for this application while LDCs lack the aspects.

LACK OF EDUCATION

The population of LDCs especially the ratio of the population of these countries to the ratio of educated ones you will come to know they (LDCs) lack education. A nation that fails to prioritize education is doomed already. A nation should do anything possible to educate his people. The rate of crime has gone far because most of them were not educate.
