Core, Periphery & Semi-Periphery

Notice in the maps below that some countries are placed in two different categories. Realize that some countries are in flux (change) so it is difficult to pinpoint which category they should be placed. What is important here is that you should note which two categories they have been placed in.

Also, Core, Semi-Periphery and Periphery countries are the same as MDC, NIC and LDC, in general.
