It is better to think of development as a characteristic for populations rather than countries because most countries are developmentally heterogeneous. An underdeveloped country as Uruguay have 50% of its inhabitants living in developed conditions; while 10% of the people in a developed country as the USA live in underdevelopment.

We understand that developing instead of underdeveloped is an euphemistic expression assuming unproven trends toward socioeconomic improvement.
