However, they do share characteristics that define them as developing nations.

![Page 6: DEVELOPING – DEVELOPED NATIONS. More than 150 countries in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America are classified as developing nations](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012922/56649de75503460f94ae1606/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
But most agree that a developing country is
a country with a: relatively low standard of
living, undeveloped industries,
and low Human Development
Index.
WHAT IS A “DEVELOPING” versus a “DEVELOPED” NATION?
![Page 7: DEVELOPING – DEVELOPED NATIONS. More than 150 countries in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America are classified as developing nations](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012922/56649de75503460f94ae1606/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The Standard of Livingrefers to the quality and quantity of goods and services available to people and the way these are distributed within a population.
![Page 8: DEVELOPING – DEVELOPED NATIONS. More than 150 countries in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America are classified as developing nations](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012922/56649de75503460f94ae1606/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
This classification is also often measured by statistics such as income per person,income inequality, and poverty rate.
![Page 9: DEVELOPING – DEVELOPED NATIONS. More than 150 countries in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America are classified as developing nations](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012922/56649de75503460f94ae1606/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
There are other factors considered when measuring
standard of living.

Some factors are overpopulation,

Examples are access to certain goods
(such as number of telephones

as life expectancy.

“Developing” nations’ economies rely on a few export crops; farming is conducted by primitive methods; and rapid population growth threatens the supply of food.
