In World-Systems Theory, countries are categorized into three main groups: core, semi-periphery, and periphery.
1. **Core countries** are the most economically developed and powerful nations, characterized by strong economies, high levels of income, advanced technologies, and stable governments. Examples include the United States, Germany, and Japan.
2. **Semi-periphery countries** have a mix of both core and periphery characteristics. They are typically industrialized but may still experience economic challenges. Examples include Brazil, India, and South Africa.
3. **Periphery countries** are the least powerful within this framework. They often have weaker economies, may rely on agriculture or raw materials, and face social and political challenges. Examples include many countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, parts of Asia, and Latin America.
In summary, the **periphery** countries have the least power in World-Systems Theory.
