it's funny how many people skimped out on the very top post right there that already states the answer. Tell me which of those is actually considered a country?

I'm sorry but I'm mentally handicapped, can you please just tell me what this country is, I can't seem to locate it in the top post

he lied

Maybe Google works differently where he's from, in Shangri-La

@darkphoenix181
so please tell me which part was a lie? What constitutes as a lie to you now? Is Singapore none of what I described? You're literally just denying an entire country at this point, even made funnier when I'm the one living in the country. Please keep on embarrassing yourself. Your first reply to my suggestion already gave way to your ignorance on believing such a country exists, but just reinforces the stereotype of the American mindset of world ignorance. From what I notice about Americans, their entire worldview sadly pretty much just revolves around Europe and their own country. Few even have a passport since they never even leave their good ol' USA.

''Oh look, this guy says he's not from 'Murica. Must be a European!'' That's exactly the kind of ignorant post you just made, immediately jumping to assumption based on your narrow-minded worldview.

What's most funny perhaps is how you people are the ones busy googling all the way. When I don't even need to at all lmao.

Want me to share more little known facts about my country? Like how it's a large Muslim population as well but living in absolute harmony with three other races with not a single racial conflict for decades? Or how it's the only country in Asia where half of the people speak English as their home language even though they're Chinese?
Well, not that it's even relevant to this topic anymore, isn't it? But hey, wonder who asked first?

funny considering this the only country in the world that meets all the specific descriptions I made.
Now do try pondering for a moment, as to why someone being questioned about his country would bother lying about his country with instead an unknown one, while giving high records of his country no one asked for, then make up more very high-end criterias along the way then later only expect himself to look for this country he for no reason would want to lie about in the first place?
If you're unable to wrap your head artound this, I'm afraid you're either seriously dumb or lacking serious amount of common sense or just have ego so big you can't find fault in your mistakes. But I guess that's to be expected when you're speaking on the same level as the Admiral.

Is it K'un Luun? Are you the Iron Fist?

I mean yeah, if you look at the last 15 years, 9 months and 10 days.

We don't talk about the last 15 years, 9 months and 11 days. Why would you even consider that?

the US has it so much better off compared to the rest of Europe

Aside from 9/11, you mean. You're glossing over a fairly significant event that basically resulted in the current U.S. mindset.

Yeah, an excuse to start the pattern of authoritarianism through civil rights sacrifices and the blood of our soldiers. And in our grand quest to make the attackers pay, we decided to let him hide in the middle east while we attacked the government that kept Iran, Turkey, Syria and Saudi Arabia from really being able to easily communicate with each other and organize, who was also the only Sunni nation in the region. Hell, they were the closest thing to a nonreligious state there.

But you know, we just had to go after fucking Saddam Hussein in Iraq because of the 15 Saudis, 1 Egyptian, 2 UAEliens and a Lebanese guy. Because that's how you combat terrorism, by flailing wildly in people's backyards so they won't think you're crazy.

Irrational fear towards dark-skinned people is our national pastime.

https://historylist.wordpress.com/2008/05/29/human-deaths-in-the-us-caused-by-animals/

I just googled this stuff, and it seems like all these deaths are less common than death by terrorists, yet people are still scared of some of the things regardless.

Just because it isn't likely to happen to a specific person doesn't mean they aren't allowed to be afraid, it doesn't invalidate their fear. I mean for some people, having to use their insurance to pay for things is way less likely than for others, yet they still have it because they fear something can happen.

Trying to say "they have no reason to fear this" is a very very poor attempt to troll.

Japan doesn't just not let refugees in, they also pretty much make it illegal to be a Muslim there. It's illegal to build a Mosque in Japan and they despise Muslims.

Their suicide rate absolutely crushes every other nation, but outside of you choosing if you want to live or not, Japan is pretty much the safest county. They also don't allow civilians to carry guns. Gun liscenses in the county are very, very strictly regulated and there's less than like 10,000 people in the country that can own a gun. The police don't have guns. Only the military does.

Not sure which you're referring to but if it's Singapore, they've never had a racial riot in almost 50 years and the only racial hate crime there has been are over the internet. They have harsh laws against any form of racial discrimination. Say something bad about a Malay or Indian online on facebook and you'll be arrested by police. Seriously.
