The statement is true. A country with a developed economy is more likely to have a strong, stable government.

Explanation:

A developed country, in general, is a country that has a high standard of living (high human development). One of the most used indicators to consider a country as "developed" is the human development index (HDI). This index takes into account wealth, education and health.

It is considered that economic development generates a high quality of life. Although the most industrialized countries, which have achieved advanced technology and innovation, achieve high human development as a result, there are also many countries that, for various reasons, have achieved high human development, but with medium or low levels of technology and industry. In theory a very populated country needs to generate a high industrialization to generate a high quality of life consequently, while a small one only needs to generate a low industrialization.

In turn, economic development creates stability in governments, since these countries are less likely to be hit by financial crises, and if it occurs, their development provides them with greater protections, so the consequences are not as serious as for other countries.
