Japan isn't really third world, but I get what you're saying. It's simpler all around to take a virgin White wife than worry about in-vitro and living abroad.
Is Japan not third-world? While they are "Best Asia", I'm not sure about their "-world" status.
On one hand, we have both the "fringe anthropology" argument that they were founded by (and, later, ruled by) Whites as well as their ability to embrace modern technology.
On the other, when Western Whitey came to Japan, he found a technologically backwards nation that, in isolation, had not progressed meaningfully beyond an early medieval level. While our Japanese friends did embrace modern technology bigly, the only reason that they have it is because the Americans and the Germans were total bros and gave it to them.
If not for the USA forcing Japan to open up, if we had left them isolated like the North Sentinelese, would they still be practicing medieval-stage feudalism under a Shogun?
Strictly speaking, Japan is first-world. It's a Cold War term. The USA an it's satellites were the first world. The USSR and its satellites were the second world. Everything else (shitholes by coincidence) was third world.
>the only reason that they have it is because the Americans and the Germans were total bros and gave it to them.
Usually only the embrace part matters. If all industrial tech had to be invented in the country, the US would fail too. America literally smuggled in UK spies in big hats and trench coats to steal their industrial tech during America's industrialization.

Emperor Meiji could have still taken power and modernized the technology, but it would have been significantly less likely.
