An '''LEDC''' is a '''less economically developed country''' which is relatively poor compared to other [[country|countries]].
''NB: Because exam boards are ridiculous, they can't agree on a single phrase for this concept. As a result AQA terms it an [[LIC|LIC (Low Income Country)]], Edexcel refers to it as a [[Developing Country]] and OCR refers to it as an [[LIDC|LIDC (Low-Income Developing Country)]]. Note that '''LEDC''' is the only abbreviation that turns up at the top of a google search for the term without other words being added.''
