    You can choose which part you want, however where exactly is random based on the birth rate (if a region has a higher birth rate it is more likely that you are born there). What part would you choose and why?

        I was born in C, not recommended.

        (People's Republic of China)

        Restrictive firewall, no porn, hard to get western media, so you'd be stuck with ww2 sino-japanese war tv drama or some cringe romance stuff.

        With a population of 1.4 Billion (well, minus the area covered by "E"), you'd most likely end up there.

        Did I even mention video games? Yea... that's gonna be tough to get, definitely no online multiplayers (even if you somehow got a VPN, the ping is gonna kill you).

        And your VPN could fail at any time even if you do get it.

        Also, OP didn't specify you get to choose your gender, so if you're born as a woman in Japan... good luck. (Don't ask why camera shutter sounds are mandatory on Japanese Phones)

          Why don't you go for a walk in almost any developing country and calm down.

          I am calm down. See, when I go for a walk, I know I'm safe. Proper walking infrastructure, safe roads so no risk being hit by cars (yes we have cars, not mega trucks). No one has a gun, so that's nice. I can safely walk the streets any time of the day, everywhere I go. If something were to happen to me, there's proper healthcare covered by insurance and a free ambulance ride with a max 10min waiting time, everywhere in the country. We have affordable medicine. There's a working democracy where I live and even though it could be better, a working social system. They are working to decrease the amount of cars in my city and increase greenery so the air is clean. And next to that, our drinking water is the highest rated drinking water out there, even better than bottled water. So are our roads, highest rated in the world. There's public transportation everywhere (still could be cheaper imo) so I sold my car because it became obsolete. I have an e-bike because cycling infrastructure is also everywhere. But don't worry, we still complain about stuff. Like, houses are expensive. While in the US they give children backpacks with bullet proof vests, we force companies to change all ports to USB C. We fight for phones to get replaceable batteries back, in the US they struggle to deal with a company who mass murders tens of thousands each year by making them all addicted to opiods, which still continues to this day.

          I've seen developing countries in a better state than the US. Don't forget, the most in the US are born into poverty and have little to no chance to get out of it. The only chance they have is getting killed, end up in jail, die by overdose or make a minimum wage while living in their car until they get sick.

          And remember, I've seen many countries on nearly all continents. Many are worse, but also many are better. Much better.

              Feels like B, because it would be the easiest to migrate back to Europe. Technically that is also true for K but you are crazy if you think I am going to the land of biological horrors even for a few days, let alone few years.

                "I" would include antartica and subantartic islands?

                Based on the rules, picking I would place you somewhere in Africa.

                  Yeah but you might be born as an aboriginal tribe member, which the Australian government isn't exactly the nicest towards.

                  Is the birth rate higher in tribes than in the cities?

                    That would be impossible based on the rules.

                      K is clearly the best, but E is underrated. Some highly developed countries there, just have to hope you won't get Myanmar.

                        Probably:

                        K>B>H>E>G. They all have decently developed countries whilst ensuring that you don't end up born in a developing country.

                        For the big slices, F should be best (guaranteed to avoid the worst outcomes).

                        Born in Antartica would be a neat second playthrough. Polar bears are hella scary but I would definitely boop the nose before I go down.

                                      Cambodia isnt great either. With B, you can always move to a decent part of Mexico.

                                          I can't speak to now, but 20 years ago, at least, NZ and Canada were some of the easier western countries to emigrate to.

                                          I find Urzila hilarious.
