  Summary

  I need to study for Human Geography, but late one night I couldn't take anything seriously. I read "The core countries dominate the periphery and semiperiphery countries socially, economically, and politically" and i was gone.

  How the Core/SemiPeriphery/Periphery system works in this fanfic:
  (I will use C, SP, and P for short)

  C, SP, and P are all categories of what countries can be.
  (for a summary of Wallerstein's World Systems Theory, visit this page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World-systems_theory#Characteristics)

  If a country's name is written as [Core] in brackets, that means it is referring to the individual country.
  Countries can change statuses, which is why in the first chapter, the country referred to as [SemiPeriphery] is the same country that is referred to as [Periphery] in the upcoming chapters. I will try to find a way to highlight or change the text color or something to have this make sense across chapters.

  Synopsis: [Periphery] is falling into the same pattern of dependence and toxicity on [Core] that [SemiPeriphery] suffered in their younger days, and we see both historical colonialism and neocolonialism affect countries in this dramatic saga.
