TIL that the country whose name literally means “southern” is a part of the Global North.

Yeh tf with Australia and Brazil being “global north”? Also, China has also started increasing natural gas supply and is building new infrastructure as well, but has no mention in the article at all.
They're closely connected with the other countries that have been powerful and influential in recent history (as in the past couple of centuries), most of which actually are grouped more northerly than other countries. It's a cultural and diplomatic term rather than a strict geographic one
