Name the top country you wish you would have been born into citizenship in other than your own

[gandalf12]

Qatar - you get a free house, free furnishings, money from the Oil & Gas revenues, given a high paid job irrespective of capability and you have the Embassies giving you visa's with out any problem.

You did not say about where to live ,just the citizenship.

[patyh]

UK.

[Fookhaht]

Switzerland

Visited twice. Between the mountains and quaint villages it's a fairy tale setting.

Hiking, backpacking, and skiing across the Alps from village to village is like a dream.

Not employed by Swiss Tourism Authority.

I do, thank you.

[Docno]

Another for Iceland here.

Didn't Iceland have an economic meltdown just a few short years ago and require a bail out from the EU? That would have to impact individual citizens' standard of living I would think...

[Docno]

Denmark - they seem to be pretty happy there.

[Tchooptip]

Andorra.

[nealthewheel]

Switzerland

[KhunBENQ]

Liechtenstein

Would be my third country

Being Swiss (raised in Germany)

Opted for Monaco.

Bur Liechtenstein is the step-up from Switzerland

No.....that would be US banks in the land of milk and honey.......It did have an impact on citizens standards-...51% of US citizens are earning $31000

And unlike Iceland(where the charges were laid against banksters)the US has NOT charged any banker for crimes of mass financial destruction!

[Nasrullah]

Pimlico

Pimlico is not a country

a lot of people replying to this thread seem to think they're comedians.......OP asked an interesting question.....

I think he means if you were born again in the same year,what country would you like to have been brought-up in.....

[hugh2121]

No nonsense Australia.

[puukao]

North Korea

Nigeria just lost out!!!!

In last place, Hawaii.....if that is a country.

55555555

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawaii

I'm an American and have spent time in Hawaii, I was trying to be dumb.

OK, OK, Serious answer time!!!!

I would need safety, upward mobility, nice language, and good quality of life.

I would say Germany, but I think it might fail in quality of life and nice sounding language.

I have traveled a lot, but not to the place i will name, which means i haven't found a better one.

1. Austria

2. UK

[smotherb]

I don't understand you guys the op's question was very easy why can't you just answer

with a simple answer and leave all your crap behind

Perhaps it is because some people believe they have the right to comment what they think rather than be pigeon-holed into what others think.

[Donutz]

Being born as a Dutch citizen, and liking most asoects of it, I'd say any country that has simular basics. Germany, Denmark, Sweden (cold!), Finland (colder!), UK ( same shitty rainy weather as NL), Belgium (Flanders). Liechtenstein is too small, plenty of people never heard if it, I would't really consider it. Australia might be nice.

For a best answer I'd need to dig into all the pro's and con's but if asked to name one without overthinkng it: Germany.

[Kiwiken]

Born NZ but also UK citizen

But if could have been born anywhere else I choose Japan

Was born again in Thailand

[johnarno]

New Zealand, I did my first three trips in the Brit Merchant Navy to New Zealand, wonderful land, loved the place, I watched a programme on YouTube last night, a train journey from Auckland to Wellington, beautiful countryside.
