    The term "free world" is a politically-charged term that was primarily used during the Cold War to refer to countries that were not part of communist regimes. Generally, it represents countries that embrace democratic systems, political freedom, civil rights, and freedom of speech. These countries are typically characterized by open markets, free trade, and capitalist economies. However, the definition can vary depending on the political context and perspective.

  1. Free World

    "Free World" is a Cold War–era term often used by the U.S. and its allies to describe those countries that were not in the sphere of influence of, or allied with communist states, particularly the Soviet Union or the People's Republic of China, but which showed a strong commitment to ideologies of liberalism and capitalism. It is often used interchangeably with "First World". The term usually refers to countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, France, West Germany, and organizations such as the European Union and NATO. In addition, the "Free World" occasionally includes the Commonwealth realms, Japan, Israel, and India. Authoritarian and dictatorial states were also included in the "Free World", provided that they were either capitalistic or anti-communist. Notable examples include Spain under Francisco Franco, apartheid-era South Africa, and Greece under the military junta of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
