The Free World is a propaganda term,[1][2] primarily used during the Cold War from 1945 to 1991, to refer to the Western Bloc and aligned countries.
The term refers more broadly to all liberal democracies collectively,[3] as opposed to authoritarian regimes such as socialist states.[4] It has traditionally primarily been used to refer to the countries allied and aligned with the United States, the European Union and NATO. The term "leader of the free world" has been used to imply a symbolic and moral leadership, and was mostly used during the Cold War in reference to the President of the United States.
