Any country where its government tries to brain wash its nation with propaganda for its own devious end.

The ones with despots for leaders. Ruled by fear and violence.

They are all corrupt to varying degrees, there is no virtue in being the 'least corrupt'.

Probably, though New Zealand scores the lowest when it comes to all round corruption.

It terms of missing parcels and countries i deal with Italy and Russia are the worst (I dont ship to Russia anymore) and frankly i am getting fed up as usual with Italy.

I could count on one hand missing stuff to the USA in the last 20 odd years and nothing to oz or NZ (or Germany). China is good too and of course Japan (who have always lovely people)

Obviously dictatorships will always be worst but in countries with REAL democracies (IE not Russia), I'd say that the US is the worst at the moment since Trump's presidency has reduced the White House to a Reality TV show and it's a godamn horror show.

I have to say the US as I think the politics is very money motivated from all angles.

I love how someone selected SD's... as if somebody in North Korea wakes up every morning, turns on their TV to see the latest from Kim Jong, and thinks to themselves 'well at least its not the serious debates section of this is big brother dot com'

I don't like the 'popularity contest' aspect of American politics, which sadly seems to have spread to the UK too.

I understand that the personality/appearance of a leader is important to some people, but I genuinely think the content of manifesto/policies should be prioritised when voting.
