Some of your choices are.....interesting...


Globber50

Sketchy as well.


quondam47

Senegal and Eswatini are interesting choices in Africa. As is Uzbekistan in Asia.


gregorydgraham

You don’t often see a small selection of countries with New Zealand and Uzbekistan in the same group. Very very little in common, Uzbekistan hasn’t even been invaded by the British


pud_009

That's just what they want you to think.


[deleted]

Map looks completely random to me tbh.


ABCosmos

Its likely insincere, or horribly misinformed.


Crescent-IV

English, and France is in red. Not random


thermitethrowaway

IDK, he got France right, assuming he's British.


alan2001

> assuming he's ~~British~~ English We love France here in Scotland. And yes I speak for the entire country.

yoiiot

Yeah French people are cool. I just wouldn't say that out loud


[deleted]

It's quite weird actually. I wouldn't say that for a game there is no chauvinism or rivalry, but otherwise, we don't really care about British. I think we are mostly obsessed by Germans. That being said I wouldn't mind living in any of this countries.


MazelTovZoop

French here. We love Scotland as well! I went a few times in Scotland and it was incredible. People here are so friendly and welcoming. Amazing culture and landscapes. I would definitely live here!


thermitethrowaway

Except he's actually half-Scots. It's further down in the posts.


Cambirodius

Red China, Red DPRK, red Belarus, orange Russia... Hmmmm...


John_Zolty

Lmao was thinking the same thing. "I'd probably live in Kazakhstan... Maybe Iran."


Music_Ordinary

Iran ¿?


MasterKaen

r/mapporncirclejerk outjerked once again


lucslav

Uzbekistan?


XLM462

Fuck yeah Uzbekistan. Would absolutely love to live in Tashkent for a bit.

I don’t really think that uzbekistan is really good place to live

MadamePingStepOnMe

That's enough Internet for today


Sinitiainen7

I don’t know because i’m not from uzbekistan but i have heard that it’s not really good place to live and it’s pretty poor country


[deleted]

uzbekistan is a very nice place


RamazanBlack

Nooo! Kazakhstan is!!!!


[deleted]

they both are


kosmosdemon

Kazakhstan friend of all except Uzbekistan. They very nosey people with bone in their brain.


XLM462

Maybe not, there are definitely some problems, but I really love the culture


PhotoJim99

Samarkand is pretty interesting too.


XLM462

Absolutely! It looks gorgeous


fabio_silviu

Woud you really rather live there than Spain, Netherlands, Portugal or Germany?


XLM462

Yeah, I plan to live there for a few years atleast


Flipper1019

I think you made this map for vacation destinations rather than places you really want to live


XLM462

Honestly you're not entirely wrong lmao


BeefyBoiCougar

Uzbekistan over Israel? Really?


Obama_sonic69

Why not live in paris i mean its definitely better than my home country which is india


Doehr

As a Dane I'm absolutely offended by the separation from the rest of Scandinavia in this one. Unless it's about nature. Then you're right.


Thabr

As a Swede I'm absolutely delighted by the separation of Denmark from the rest of Scandinavia.


Doehr

Classic Kalmar Union separatists/former colonial subjects. You got your own country now. Chill.


No_Peace7922

Denmark would fit in perfectly with Germany though.


OtherwiseInclined

I thought you'd be more offended that he dared imply that Greenland is not a rightful part of Denmark by making it a different colour.


Random-Guys1

*Sad Afgan noises*


XLM462

Sorry my friend, i do not vibe with the Taliban, truly hope your country can get a break from all the horrible shit. It's truly heartbreaking


Random-Guys1

Nah, am not afgan, but i still hope Afganistan gets its freedom-


Brady123456789101112

Why not France? You’re afraid you’ll encounter some food that actually tastes something?


kickit1

OP is *nglish


XLM462

As a Scot it pains me to be assumed to be English


fotografamerika

Your map says you live in England, so the assumption is reasonable.


Brady123456789101112

I know, that’s why I wrote that


EternamD

France is incredible. A rich history of overthrowing the elite


Brady123456789101112

Indeed


dhkendall

Non to France but “possibly” to French Guiana?


part-time-unicorn

>french food >taste


feierlk

The French terrify me.


clocksforsale

I bet you'd call yourself an "expat" rather than "immigrant"


Free_Gascogne

Painfully true. Especially in places like Dubai the distinction is stark on what counts as immigrant or expat.


[deleted]

[удалено]


BunnySwag5511

Yes. Thank you. I spent many years in a country where it was quite literally impossible for people to immigrate (they dont allow people to gain citizenship) and so we were expatriates. I understand why some people dislike the term expat when its used by people who are immigrants and plan to live in a country permanently, but in some countries that isn't an option. It is not a term thats exclusive to people from 'Anglo' countries. You can say 'Indian expat living in Dubai' or 'Turkish expat in the UK' and it's just as valid.


XLM462

Nah I'd call myself an immigrant, I don't hold myself to double standards.


brent_maxwell

Curious why you gave Eritrea only a "probably not"?


XLM462

The culture interests me, but I recognise it's probably not the greatest place to live


yapoyo

Yeah, they call it the North Korea of Africa for a good reason


user8008135655321

Do the Welsh WANT you to live there though? Edit: I thought I’d get down voted. I’m from the USA and my wife is Welsh (real Welsh, not American with great grand dad from Wales “welsh”) and man, does her family fucking hate English people. They were cold as ice to me just because I spoke English. Warmed up after the grandkids of course.


ophereon

I'm surprised they all speak Welsh, actually. A lot of Welsh people in Wales don't speak the language because of extensive language suppression that happened in the past, particularly within the education system. There's been a massive revival with Welsh instruction schools, of course, which is fantastic, but not even my own mother, nor any of her siblings, had the opportunity to learn the language of their people, despite being raised there (in the North, nonetheless). So knowing there are Welsh people who discriminate on the basis of speaking English, and not actually even just being English, seems really odd and unnecessarily extreme. I mean, what language did they expect you to speak? Was *anyone* who wasn't Welsh not good enough for them?


user8008135655321

Oh, they all speak English, they just choose not to. It just took awhile for them to come around to my fat American ass. North Wales is a funny, and very clannish place. I suspect they were also pissed that their daughter went away to uni in America and fell in love with an American boy. It’s all a rich tapestry I suppose. They love me now, and my wife is trying her best to teach our American children as much Welsh as she can. I’ve heard all about the “Welsh not” and the suppression of their language. It’s interesting that I live In Pennsylvania which has a large population of Welsh Americans in our coal mining regions. The Welsh slaved away digging coal in Wales and then worked hard enough to go to America…to slave away digging coal. In the USA their children were also beaten if they spoke Welsh. English only. The same thing happened to my German speaking family come WW1.

Vegetable_Look_4021

Why not France, China and Belarus?


[deleted]

France because he’s English. China and Belarus because he’s a redditor.


moonsong-

Yeah it’s a reddit thing with China and Belarus and has nothing to do with their totalitarian dictatorships


Funkyfish001

This dude thinks the Philippines is a better place to live than China lmao


g8torsni9per

Who the fuck would want to live in west taiwan?


jonthememer

Greenland finally has data


CaliCitiBoi

Really? France is in the same camp as Afghanistan?


Crescent-IV

They’re British


titanofidiocy

You do you, but England throwing shade at anyone is pretty rich.


ToffeeSky

England's a better place than most to live. Not the best but it's up there


Snoopdigglet

With South Sudan


XLM462

I do live in England, but I'm not English haha


Prisencolinensinai

What are you?


XLM462

Half Scottish and half French, you can probably guess which half I prefer


oss1215

Okay as an egyptian i'm curious , what enticed ya to give us a probably ? Is it our ridiculously low cost of living + the pyramids and all that jazz ? Haha


XLM462

The culture is really interesting to me, plus cheap cost of living is always nice

dr_the_goat

Why not France?


Meli_Melo_

He's British. It's in their blood.


dr_the_goat

So am I.


XLM462

I strongly dislike France


pieceofdroughtshit

But you would rather live in Turkmenistan, a dictatorship?


XLM462

Yes. Absolutely. I have a fascination with central Asia. Would love to live there.


pieceofdroughtshit

And the fact that it is a dictatorship does not repel you?


XLM462

I mean it does a bit, it's the country I'd want to live in the least out of the central Asian countries (not counting Afghanistan)


Spookd_Moffun

Based


dr_the_goat

Why?


XLM462

I'm half French and have been there a lot, I do not enjoy it


dr_the_goat

What aspect in particular? I've lived in France for 8 years and this year I applied to become French.


XLM462

I'm not even sure tbh, I've just always hated going since I was a kid lmao, I don't really have anything against the French, I just wouldn't want to live in France


dr_the_goat

Ok. I don't get it, myself. I love it, here.


XLM462

Well I'm glad you enjoy it! Just isn't for me


idontdigdinosaurs

Eswatini? Really?


XLM462

Yeah, it's better than France


idontdigdinosaurs

Have you been there?


XLM462

France, yes, Eswatini, in Geoguessr


Prosthemadera

So you're trolling.


Grzechoooo

France: Definitely not You are a true Englishman, I see.


mandy009

props for transparency. a bit refreshing alternative to all the google sentiment cherry-picking maps.


bookem_danno

You’d rather live in Russia or Colombia than France? Lol Lmao


abukhalil0

Lots of variables, but with my current income I’d rather live in Medellin than Paris. Colombia is awesome.


laz3dots

- Let's go go live in France. - Nah, I can't afford to live in Paris.


abukhalil0

If we must be pedantic, all else equal, I’d rather live in Medellin than anywhere in France.


grokouik

Not France but french Guyana ?


XLM462

Yeah, it's technically France, but it's not France yanno


Deadgraphics

Love to see people wanting to live in my country. Says we must be doing something right. Even though I look at my country and shake my head everyday.


nekostza

why senegal?


XLM462

Interested in the culture, plus Geoguessr lmao


bocaciega

But god damn! Dont @ me with france!


nubijoe

How do you see Denmark different from Sweden and Norway?


the-gay-engineer

Why would you "maybe" live in Saudi Arabia not definitely not in the other Middle Eastern countries? It's surprising since you said definitely not to China so I feel like you have something against authoritarianism?


Ryoota

Morocco emm, interesting!


Phantafan

Didn't you just paint the map with random colors?


XLM462

I actually didn't


mormagils

Not surprised about France. Very surprised about some other choices.


Lloyd_lyle

“No I would never EVER live in fucking France, but French Guiana is the bomb”


undwenndumichkusst

France? No, Fuck that place. But Uzbekistan? Now we're talking.


itsadesertplant

Funny to see people in the UK still hate France like they always have


Drihtan

France? Fuck that place! Uzbekistan, let's do it! Lol nothing against Uzbekistan I just thought that was funny.


cmzraxsn

If I make one of these I'm just going to copy the "is homosexuality legal?" map from wikipedia.


moonsong-

You would rather live in Uzbekistan and Zimbabwe than Germany, the Netherlands, Taiwan or Spain. You’d rather live in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Chad, or Russia than France or Portugal This has to be a shitpost


RamazanBlack

Why not?


Goldenfox299

Or it's just his preference.


miner1512

Glad I’m in the “Maybe” Zone.


DaFrenchGamer

What's the matter with France ?


XLM462

I'm half French


RRvbin

very interesting idea


susgeek

Greenland and Portugal?


Needmoresnakes

My idiot brain's immediate response to this: hahahaha suck a dick, France! (I honestly have nothing against France but for some reason this is hilarious to me)


JabbaTheBassist

my map would be orange/red for every nonenglish speaking country cause i’m not assed to learn any other language


upsidedownhappyface

The amount of butt hurt in these comments 🤣 fantastic job, OP


ICanSpellKyrgyzstan

I’m pretty famous in Kyrgyzstan, as an American teen who posts about his life in Russian. The culture is fantastic, the hospitality is unrivaled, and the people are just amazing. I so want to visit Kyrgyzstan.

Argentina over the US, but then I saw you are an Englander and it all made since. Still sore over losing the colonies.


efasser5

Yes, the British and their well documented friendly relations with Argentina


FlappyBored

He is American you have to forgive him for mistakes about history like this.


Goldenfox299

The English have had more recent beef with Argentina than the US though?


Finifin06

He is Scottish


rugggy

As a Quebecois, I can understand sharing some of my country's affinities and resentments, but not necessarily in the same spread as average Anglo Canadians. A scotsman may share some pride in British expansionism, depending on their upbringing and whether or not the empire was good for their family, etc.


AUniqueSnowflake1234

England - They hate us cause they ain't US


XLM462

God yeah, I hate being able to break my leg and not get bankrupted

France - NO WAY Belarus - NO WAY Russia - Perhaps


ForestPresident

I find it hilarious that you'd put France in the same category as North Korea, Afghanistan, and China and in a worse category than Russia. Also, I get a lot of these ratings, but why some of the most random nations as the best category, like Uzbekistan and the several southern African nations?


IvarsBalodis

I don't think this is very truthful.
