Then think about the characteristics that are the direct opposite and describe a country where you would not want to live.
Next write a paper in which you:
1) Present a rationale for choosing the kind of country where you would like to live and discusses the reasons for using particular indicators of well-being to select that country (you should use at least 6 indicators);
2) Identify a country where you would like to live based on the desirable characteristics you have selected;
3) Detail and discusses the country’s performance and especially rankings on the characteristics you selected (i.e. justify your choice); and
4) Identify a country where you would not like to live and compare its performance and rankings to the more desirable country identified in steps 1 to 3. Be sure to give equal treatment to the country where you would not like to live.
