Why are some countries still developing and considered third world?

Asked by tekn0lust (1868points) January 26th, 2010

I imagine every country has different reasons and so there probably isn’t a end all be all reason. But why are some countries so much more advanced than others? Is it natural resources, geographic location, religion, government, interference from other countries, luck?
