wew, except not really anymore

there's two police forces their, the normal police and the religious police

the religious police you don't want to fuck around with, but usually will not fuck with you as long as you aren't drinking pork flavoured beer while getting lap dances by bikini cad women

if you have any decent amount of money, its a pretty good place

religion is toned down and more used as a political tool there to remove the lower class and keep certain ethnic groups down


its not the best nation in the world but them (along with the other arab micronations) are great if you are a modestly wealthy outwardly religious muslim

also a non-saudi can work there for easily double what they get paid in their home country for the same job
>>
>>67851268
Yes, except when you do get into trouble with the religious police, you can be murdered for the things that you mentioned (let alone the multitude of other 'haram' items). They have wealth, but they're not first world, nor should they be envied.

>>
>>67857074
They're also far smaller, that's like calling Germany a shithole because the Netherlands or Denmark beats them in a few things.
>>
>>67845933
Eh, tha map doesn't really mean anything when you take into account the cost of living.

Norway for example is ridiculously expensive compared to other Euro countries so their wages are higher on average.
>>
>>67857156
>muh size

not an argument
>>
>>67857224
Yes it is because smaller countries always win in statistics. I can say from going to both the Czech Republic and Poland that they're relatively the same, charming medieval cities with fairly depressing run down countryside.
>>
>>67857156
Germany is a shithoke compared to Dennark
>>
>>67839672
Didn´t know brazilians are visa free for tourism
Is that new or have always been that way ?
>>
>>67857284
By smaller you must mean population?
>>
>>67857325
I mean both, if you have less rural area and therefore less rural population who are generally poorer and have lower quality of life it tends to skew things in favour of you.
>>
>>67857284
Of course there are huge differences between statistically weird countries, like Vatican and small islands and large countries like China, USA, Russia.

But Poland and Czech republic are both middle sized (in population and area) countries in very similar economic and political situations.
>>
>>67856637
Much of China is still rural and lots of areas have poor infrastructure and dirty water. Places like the UAE have high standard of housing and many people living very comfortably, it strikes me as much better then china.
>>
Poland is 8th world, we would run to NK if it was close enough, leave us alone we are poor and angry.
>>
>>67845933

You probably live way better in Cyprus with 1600€ than in Holland with 2100€.
>>
>>67857432
Poland has four times as many people as the Czech Republic, but around the same amount of people live in Warsaw as live in Prague. Quality of life tends to be higher in capitals, so of course when a higher proportion of Czechs live in theirs the Czech Republic as a whole will look better.

My evidence is almost completely anecdotal, though so I don't really have much of an argument. Just seems to me personally that they are both relatively the same.
>>
>>67857389
That makes no sense.

USA has much more rural area than slovenia, yet they also have a much higher urbanisation level.
Conversely, slovenian urbanisation levels are comparable to poland's and yet we're quite a ways ahead in gdp and hdi and whatnot.

The cause and effect (really, it's more of a correlation) goes the other way around, if at all.
>>
>>67839096
Complete bullshit. Our water goes through the same pipe system as Czechs as it was built under Czechoslovakia, everyone drinks tap water, even my Aussie English teacher.
>>
>>67857588
Now you're comparing countries that have had completely different political situations for the past century, at least with Poland and the Czech Republic there's that baseline.
>>
>>67857714
Well yeah, rural area and how many farmers there are is a very bad way to measure quality of life, or maybe more /int/like, the shittyness of a country.

Good measurements for that are GDP and HDI and some other similar factors.
So, we return back to my first post.
You can try to judge and assess what were the factors that led to a certain political and economic situation of a country, but at the end of the day, those numbers are the most objective way to measure first worldedness or whatever.
>>
>>67857389
Australia and Canada both consistently score among the best nations on earth, top 10 of every positive, metric and we have a lot of rural land.
>>
>>67857814
No you don't, you have a lot of completely unpopulated land, it's not really comparable to any European country besides Russia or maybe the nordics.

>>67857784

>the first world is a meme anyway, everything in Europe is fine until you reach Belarus or go south of Croatia.


While I agree that it's a meme, since it's not very well defined, there are quite noticable differences even between life in austria and slovenia.

>>67857856
According to a poll only 11% of the Dutch people who got to Italy on vacation are willing to drink the water. And 8% of the people who go to Spain.

But that's mostly because horror stories about diarrea. And the chlorine taste. Some people even avoid ice cubes in their drinks because it gives them stomach aches.

Same in France.
>>
>>67857992
>And 8% of the people who go to Spain.
fucking assholes man
>>
>>67857950
Well, the social support you get when unemployed, how the system with capitalisation of that social fund is done and so on.

For example, you can get a 15k € grant for education, if you lost your job and plan to enter a different industry in Austria. Besides the hefty unemployment benefit, that gets much better funding because of laws on how the employer there has to invest into that. Not to mention a government system where they try to get you employed as fast as possible.
In Slovenia, they just laugh at you and give you, what, I think it's 60% of the minimal pay (which is lousy to being with), then leave you to your own devices.

And that's just the first thing that comes to mind.
>>

Pretty fucking snobbish tbqh
Had no problems with the water there
>>
>>67858032
To be fair, I go to Italy and Spain a lot and I have no idea if it's safe to drink or not.

Everyone just acts on the stories of getting sick. And then the water tastes funny so people avoid it.
>>
>>67857992

I'm guessing 99% of them go to somewhere in the med coast. It's perfectly safe but yeah it tastes bad.

But that's the med coast water only. France's is pretty good actually, at least the atlantic one I tried.

And btw dutch water taster like humid stale crap.
>>
>>67857992
The tap water of the Med Coast in Spain is disgusting. That's the reason.
>>
>>67858170

But the quality and taste do depend on the region.

sounds like you went to London, everywhere else is fine
>>
>>67858219

I know it's perfectly safe, but at least the one from Utrecht and Amsterdam taste like it's been taken out of a swamp, then filtered and purified and etc. But for the swampy stale taste.

That's what happens when you don't have mountains...

>>67858219
