Periphery countries are countries that are located around the edge of the world. They are usually not as developed as other countries, and may not have as much money or resources. They may struggle to provide basic needs to their population, such as healthcare, food, and education. Periphery countries tend to be poorer than other countries and often have a lot of problems like poverty, pollution, and inequality. Even though these countries are on the "periphery" of the world, the people who live there have lots of value and potential that should be recognized and supported.
