Where do you wish you were born, and why?

No control over to whom, just where.
Atlantis

Pretty happy with where I was originally born to be honest. I just wish the country it’s in hadn’t gone to fascist oligarch shit.
This! I won the birth lottery big time, why would I want to live anywhere/-when else?
-
Any of the top European or Asian countries with the most powerful passports. A lot of people with powerful passports don’t realize the privilege they have just by being born in their country.
Why?
My country's passport is categorized as the 3rd better in the word, but I never really used it or saw any special advantage to it.
I suppose it can be useful if you travel a lot internationally, but if that's not the case is not really that big of a deal.

Switzerland.
-
Anywhere other than Iraq.
Were you born in Iraq?

Netherlands. They arent perfect but they have bicycles, freedom, and the shengen area

France. Their culture is more open, they are more efficient, modern and if they dislike something they not just complain but move to change it. Also their trains are punctual (i am german)

Were you born in Iraq?
Unfortunately, yes.

Unfortunately, yes.
I'm sorry to hear that. Are you safe?
-
Wouldn't we all?
I would not break up with my girlfriend back then. My problem is that I still miss her, when though I'm married... It's horrible thinking about something like this for 20 years

Czechia seems like it'd be pretty based. or Estonia. I like Central/Eastern Europe. or maybe Thailand.

Safer than ever.

Any country which is richer than this shithole

My comment was supposed to say “travel privilege” instead of just “privilege”, just missed a word.

New Zealand, mostly for the charming accent.

I wanna say there was some partnership with Cirque de Soleil but I tried to verify it now and can't find anything so I may have misunderstood or be remembering incorrectly. Regardless, the theater was packed. The kids were amazing. They were doing the types of acrobatic stunts you'd see at a Cirque show. Sure, they weren't quite as good, they're high schoolers, but it was still just absolutely phenomenal!
Leaving, I started to really look around. The buildings on this campus were so huge. Like twice as tall and wide as any school building I'd ever seen. Nicer looking than my college campus. This was a public highschool. I'd never felt jealous like that before. I'd always known the quality of public education was different in different areas, but this was hardly an hour's drive from where I grew up. I'd seen other nice schools in the area before but this one was truly on another level.
So my answer is I wish I was born in Milton High School's school district I guess.

Granted… you’re born in a house of someone living in the school district when your mom who was making ends meet by cleaning houses went into labor and couldn’t make it to a hospital.
(Couldn’t resist)
