The emigrant Irish have returned home and done this country proud. Migrants often often return home long after fleeing there home to restart anew. Returning migrants can help develop their countries. Reducing emigration from said countries (see Ireland as an example)

3. I just did some research it seems she was born in Ireland so she passes my test for being Irish. But Irish is a subjective term to many. Many tie it in ethnically to race, like the Japanese and Chinese for example.

The point I was making was that Westerners may have the same difficulty intergrating into a society which suffers from poverty which I would generally refer to as a third world country as a migrant from a third world country would have intergrating into a first world western country.

Stephen15 wrote: » Well my most sincere apologies that I am not using the politically correct terms such as developing world but I'm not sure what issue is with the term and I still hear it being used fairly regularly. I am using the analogy of people from first world countries migrating to the third world to put the social and cultural differences between first and third world countries into perspective. I'm trying to prove the point that if people from the first world would have difficulty intergrating into third world countries then so would third world migrants relocatingbto the first world it generally works both ways.
batgoat wrote: » It's pretty relevant. The first world is nations aligned with Nato, the second world is nations aligned with the Soviet Bloc and the third world is those aligned with neither. Since there is no longer a Cold War, the terms are pretty meaningless. Whoever you hear using it, likely doesn't understand the meanings of the terms. Sweden, Ireland and Finland meet the definition of the third world btw.
