Canada has some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. We have some of the best mountains, rivers, forests, our wildlife cant be beat, and we have alot of it.
But any country that doesnt have BB in it is a beautiful country.  |

Well yes, morioris DID once kill and eat other fullas, but then their cheif decided to end all that and doom those that practiced cannabillism to hell! (well their hell anyway!) but it WAS the maori people that continued to practice cannabillism, and actually travelled to the chatam islands (where the last morioris retreated to (about 2000 of them)) and set about killing and eating all those that lived there, until but 100 were left.
just thought i would clear that up to save confusion. but anyway,
New Zealand is still my favorite place and i think the most gorgeous place ive seen, but then im biased. im sure others beg to differ, but hey...... |

I'm sorry but...
I dare you to name a single country which isn't beautiful,
at least in part.
The question is a non-starter. |

i understand kaliningrad is the most God-forsaken, miserable, forgotten, economically depressed and ugly areas of europe: cut off from Russia now, with no viable future: a barren inhospitable wasteland with a suicide rate to match.
Beautiful kaliningrad.

| It looks like one of those pictures where you wonder if perhaps it's upside down. Turning it right-side up wouldn't make it right tho. |

Even there has beauty. Yes, that building you posted was ugly (though interestingly so!), but there is beauty even in Kaliningrad.
Every country has its beauty as well as its ugliness.
Beautiful Kaliningrad:
If one lived in a certain neighbourhood with a good-paying job, even Kaliningrad could sincerely be called a beautiful country. It depends on what you are looking at.
America is a very ugly country if you look at many parts of many cities, and even parts of the countryside.
My point is: There is no "Most beautiful country" aside from one's vantage point. Though, of course, there are matters of degree.
It's nice to talk about the beauty of places though, isn't it? The world is a beautiful place (AND an ugly one, all together, in every region). |
