1. No Mosquitoes


Mosquitoes are the world’s deadliest animals. Sharks only kill around 10 people per year, hippos around 500, dogs around 25,000, and snakes about 50,000. In second place, humans kill 475,000 people each year. However, through the transmission of diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, yellow fever, and encephalitis, mosquitoes are responsible for killing the most by far—approximately 725,000 people annually.

Mosquitoes are found in almost every country in the world. So, is it possible to escape the annoying hum, the irritating sting, and the possibly deadly diseases carried by mosquitoes?

Yes—if you move to Iceland! Compared to Greenland, Iceland is much greener and Greenland is much icier. What’s with the confusing names, you might ask? In short, the Vikings jumped to conclusions when it came to naming the islands. In their defense, however, the climate was a little different back then. In any case, Iceland doesn’t have any mosquitoes, but Greenland does!

how i wish it was Nigeria

Corruption.

Nigeria is the only country in the world where corruption is impossible.

Receive sense

Really nice.

Nigeria ...government without brain

I don't think the Brunei part will stay true for long. The country is projected to run out of oil in 10 years and the king has done nothing but buy fancy cars (5500 luxury cars) and make an entire palace out of gold (look it up, impressive af palace). He also gives the citizens free education, healthcare and subsidized allowances. If there's no restructuring of the economy then they will be forced to borrow 10 years from now. Although they do have a sovereign wealth fund of 40 billion usd. Invested right and with their tiny population they can just live off that.

The moment i saw dat stamp point, I thought of just a name and I didn't miss.
Well done op

6. No External Debt


Although the numbers are constantly changing, some recent estimates put the United States’ external debt (defined as total public and private debt owed to nonresidents) at a whopping $17.91 trillion. The United Kingdom’s is at $8.13 trillion. The entire world is over $76 trillion in debt. In fact, just about every country in the world owes millions, billions, or trillions of those pesky dollars to others.

Although it’s said that “money makes the world go around,” perhaps it would be more fitting to replace “money” with “debt.” It doesn’t seem possible that the economic system could function under such conditions, but even more surprising is that Brunei, a small country located on the island of Borneo in Southeast Asia, owes absolutely nothing to anyone. Not a dime. They have $0 in external debt.

How has Brunei managed to avoid this quagmire of external debt? Two words: “gas” and “oil.” These two commodities account for the country’s incredible wealth.

Following independence from the UK in 1984, Brunei has done extremely well for itself. Brunei citizens enjoy a very well-disposed welfare state and even have food and housing subsidized. Even government debt is extremely low at 3.1 percent, with Hong Kong being the only country to fare better. Congratulations, Brunei.

There was a time when Libya shared this enviable distinction with Brunei. I don't think it is still the case.
That was prior to Gaddhafi's ouster in 2011. It also had[probably still does] an external reserve of 150 billion dollars.


M/while,OP,you did something right. Kudos.

They already have a plan. Seriously.

8. No Government


One of the requirements for a functioning sovereign state would be to have a government to oversee all affairs. In 2011, Belgium broke the world record for being the country without an official government for the longest period of time.

A total of 589 days went by without a government in office. Politics in Belgium is very decentralized in nature, so it meant that much of the day-to-day activities went on as usual. Bureaucrats still came in to work, and the streets were free from rioting.

Western Sahara is a country located to the south of Morocco, bordering both Algeria and Mauritania. It was colonized by Spain in 1884 and, following the decolonization period after World War II, was subsequently annexed by a freshly independent Morocco in 1957.

It has been a “disputed territory” for many decades, claimed by both Morocco and the Polisario Front. With no agreement reached even with the efforts of the United Nations, it appears that Western Sahara will continue to lack a stable government for many years to come.

But the Western Sahara does have a government;one that governs the SADR from exile-somewhere near Algeria,I think. Outside of its capital,Layounne [El Aiun].

This is great digest
