What is another word for western countries?

Pronunciation: [wˈɛstən kˈʌntɹɪz] (IPA)

When we talk about "Western countries," we typically think of nations that share a certain set of cultural values, political systems, and economic structures. However, there are many different terms that can be used to describe these countries depending on what aspect of their identity we want to focus on. For example, we might refer to them as "industrialized nations" or "developed countries" to highlight their level of economic development. Alternatively, we might use the term "Anglo-Saxon countries" to refer specifically to nations with linguistic and cultural ties to England. Other possible synonyms could include "advanced democracies," "capitalist states," or simply "the West." Ultimately, the term we choose to use will depend on our own perspective and the specific context in which we are discussing these nations.

  • In the democratic western countries so-called capitalism leads a saturnalia of "freedom," like a bastard brother of reform.

  • Many people today hold to a Gnostic view of things without realizing the fact. Believing that human beings can be fully understood in the terms of scientific materialism, they reject any idea of free will. But they cannot give up hope of being masters of their destiny. So they have come to believe that science will somehow enable the human mind to escape the limitations that shape its natural condition. Throughout much of the world, and particularly in western countries, the Gnostic faith that knowledge can give humans a freedom no other creature can possess has become the predominant religion.
    John Gray (philosopher)
  • The majority of pacifists either belong to obscure religious sects or are simply humanitarians who object to taking life and prefer not to follow their thoughts beyond that point.if one looks closely at the writing of the younger intellectual pacifists, one finds that they do not by any means express impartial disapproval but are directed almost entirely against Britain and the United States. Moreover they do not as a rule condemn violence as such, but only violence used in defence of western countries.All in all it is difficult not to feel that pacifism, as it appears among a section of the intelligentsia, is secretly inspired by an admiration for power and successful cruelty.
    George Orwell
