Essentially every country settled primarily by Europeans or their descendants, except somehow Latin America, Russia and Belarus, and, debatable, a few other European countries :D And potentially including Israel

There was once a term used for this, first world (US and allies) second world (USSR and allies) and third world (neutral-ish nations)
