Red Tuvalu judging by the URL, that is third world unless I'm very much mistaken.

manny96 Only that the distinctions 1st world, 2nd world and 3rd world are relics of the cold war era - the 2nd world was the communist bloc and although people talk about the 1st and 3rd worlds now, they don't really make sense with the structure of the international political system. Also thought the reference was for Argentina as a 3rd world country which is wrong either way. Otherwise probably wouldn't have been so pedantic.

Plus Argentina has a stable economy - so cant really be classed as "3rd world"
