I'll have to whip out the color picker to know Australia's rating for Tenerife

I was in Singapore just last week and I swear it wasn't so perfectly round then. Did I miss an earthquake or something?

Why is the UK yellow but America is green?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

On the other hand even Australians can't bring themselves to classify Australia as "safe".

I noticed a slight error in your map and fixed it up

lol I was expecting either New Zealand to be flipped to dangerous or removed.

I thought about changing it to be part of Australia too, but I don't know how many people know of our plans to take over

This makes me want to go chill in a Yurt in Mongolia...

Sweden and Denmark being yellow while the US is green is hilarious.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

Yeah but sweeten and Denmark you might get killed by a terrorist.

America is the police and children with guns mostly shooting people so it's "safe"

It's just far away and almost never part of a bands Australian tour so can't ge part of Australia.

Much like Darwin where I live in the middle north.

Perths major issue is crack heads though, the entire West Coast of Western Australia is full of remote Mine sites where uneducated people can make upwards of 200k a year working 6 to 9 months of the year, and during their time off a lot are hard into meth etc until they grlet caught lose their jobs and end up living in Kwinana.

Wow surprised to see DRC is orange now, I feel that was solid red for a long time

In case you are wondering as well, parts of Europe are in yellow due to threat of terrorist attacks. BIH: landmines, Albania: limited healthcare, Kosovo: conflict.

It's totally understandable about Albania... Bring good ol Shoe Home!

parts of Europe are in yellow due to threat of terrorist attacks

But the US is green? I.e. no terror attacks or shootings ever occur there..?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Terror attacks are pretty rare in the US, though they're also pretty rare in France and the UK.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

Shootings and other weird wack things aren't though, much more than there are terrorist attacks in Europe. As a German I'd not want to live in the US at all (not just for that reason though).

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

terror attacks by foreign nationals are pretty rare in the US – domestic terrorism on the other hand …

EDIT: Are you feeling lucky, Aussie?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

In terms of danger, Australia is in a category all of its own.
