Countries can be classified as developed nations, developed nations or underdeveloped nations depending on their economy and other factors such as education, health, poverty, etc. In the case of developing nations, these are nations that are not as developed as industrialized or developed nations but have already begin a process for expanding industry and improving conditions. Because of this, developing nations are characterized by an emerging economy with developing infrastructure but a low Human Development Index which implies a high poverty rate, low quality in education and low quality in health. According to this, a nation that has a new industry, minimal infrastructure and poverty is a developing nation.
