Given the ridiculousness of the questions, I'll assume the former is what they mean and say FACT.

TL;DR - FACT

THIS is probably the FIRST answer I don't have time to read in the History of F or C ?

I'll come back later LG

FACT or CRAP ?

FACT

The " first world " originally referred to the U.S., Europe, and its allies. The " second world " referred to the U.S.S.R. and its allies.
The " third world " referred to neutral countries.
It's cuckoo. <
