English term or phrase: the South

the South: 南部非洲、南半球、南部。。。?

This word doesn't appear elsewhere in the text. I personally tend to choose 南部非洲(地区). Would love to have your opinions. Tks!

Chinese translation:南部;南部国家;第三世界国家
Explanation:
由于是联合国认定,应该就是“南南合作”所指的第三世界国家。由于第三世界不发达国家多数位于南半球,故名。

agree  Jason Ma: the E-7 include China, India, Brazil, Russia, Indonesia, Mexico and Turkey. Russia is still a superpower, maybe it's more appropriate to say 南部国家.
