First, Second, and Third World countries are terms used in the Cold War, but also used in modern day to represent development. First World nations can mean countries sided with the US during the Cold War or a highly developed country.

So in Cold War terms, yes; Angola, Somalia, and Mauritius are considered first world nations.

And in terms of development, yes; the Seychelles, Libya, and Mauritius are considered first world nations.

No, Africa is considered a continent that consists of 54 countries, and none of them are classified as first world countries. The concept of first, second, and third world countries was originally based on political alignment during the Cold War and does not accurately reflect the economic development of countries today.
