State
Semi-peripheral nations occupy an intermediate position, exploited by core nations while extracting from peripheral ones; the middle tier stabilizes the system by giving some nations a stake in preserving it.

Watch for
Semi-peripheral names a position defined by relations to both tiers, not a moral middle rank or development stage.
