Answer» Following the Second World War, many Asian, African and Latin American countries became independent. These countries which suffered under long years of colonial oppression came to be known as Third World Countries. The world of that time was divided into capitalist bloc and socialist bloc. They realized that cold war was yet another face of imperialism and that it would threaten world peace. The liberated nations decided not to join any of the blocs and formed the Non Aligned Movement.
