Developing nation

A developing nation is one that does not have solid protection and precedent of property rights yet - unlike a developed nation that does. Typically most styles of capital are held by cronies or cliques.

Some consider large public wikis like Wikipedia to be like developing nations in some ways, notably, relying too much on one power structure to make all decisions about rights and obligations.

Revolutions and regime change are common in developing nations. So, too, the Wikipedia Red Faction demands wiki regime change, seeking to unseat Wikimedia.
