Like in terms of climate change, political climate, wars, etc.

It’s China
Cuba. They survived the 90’s they can survive anything
They’re not in the best spot climate change wise though. The DPRK would probably fare better.
I support a Cuban “Israel” project by handing them North Dakota
Nah give them Vancouver Island.
Give them all of Florida. It’s similar climate, more land, and will make gusano heads explode.
Florida is not much better off when it comes to the ongoing and growing climate crisis.
That’s true, but it buys them more time and is entryism onto the mainland.
And it’ll make gusano heads explode, which is most important.
Iceland may lose some surface area due to rising seas, but warmer climates will probably create more farmland on the rich volcanic soil. They can probably maintain a modest quality of life for a very long time cut off from the rest of the world like Cuba, but without the increasing number and severity of tropical storms every year
The gulf stream collapsing means that anything above the 30th parallel will be covered in meters of ice in a matter of years, iceland will be one of the first to fall to it.
this is complete bs by the way it’s not nearly as simple as the Gulf Stream being the only factor keeping northern europe more temperate, it probably won’t collapse in “a matter of years” so much as a matter of decades or centuries, and the cooling effect that has will likely be offset by other factors such as an ice-free Arctic no longer acting to limit heating of the northern oceans
Omgv yes please i want to freeze to death instead of sweat
i don’t think anyone has a good idea what will actually happen from that, it seems very silly to suggest it’d be worse than climes on similar latitude without a gulf stream. Russian east & Canada are cold but they aren’t unlivable—and they’re becoming warmer like everywhere
iceland’s where the billionaires who are too racist for new zealand will build their bunkers, it’s fucked
be cool if they build those bunkers over a rising mantle plume
wait till they see my People’s Welding Torch
Iceland is full of snowy barbarians that know no civilization, hope you like running around in a loin cloth and eating stinky fish. oh and there’s no shade on account that the beggards cut down all their trees, not even for anything cool just lots of boats to go get more stinky fish
Frozen snow and ice melting has actually caused Iceland to rise a bit as an island as the weight on it decreases
So it’s actually gaining land
Thinking about things out of your control all the time is going to make you stressful You are not a decision maker or a seer you can’t know or control the future
Text a friend to grab a drink or watch a movie is much more useful than thinking about this thing
Yeah that’s probably right and I do try to not think too much about these things😵💫, but I do hope to leave my home country some day, so I need a target country to work towards in the meantime😅
I am in the same boat I think us is best because of simply how big it is
My bet is on DPRK.
Aren’t all the billionaires moving to Aotearoa/NZ?

China without a single microsecond of hesitation
I will convert myself into a virus and then upload myself to collective humanity. After humanity has advanced enough to re-materialize me from my distributed form I will have transferred myself into our glorious future of luxury gay space communism.
Edit: This reminds me of Pham Nuwen’s swarm form in the Zones of Thought trilogy.
Popular Korea is eternal. Sorry China stans
The ones that have practiced Autarky for decades. They won’t have luxury, but they will weather the storm.
no such countries
What do you mean? DPRK, Cuba, Rojava, Sentinel Island, and so forth. Pockets where people rely majorly on domestic production, even if they have trade with other countries, will be better off than countries that focus on foreign trade and production.
There are no perfectly isolated countries, but the ones that are more self-reliant will survive better.
best of luck moving to sentinel island
That’s not what I was suggesting.
I just want to vibe in the jungle but my friends keep shooting arrows at my boat :(
China has existed for 10,000 years so I’ll go with that.
the principality of sealand
Canada could win climate change.
Until the US inevitably annexes it :(
:uncle-sam-shining:
I can’t tell if you are serious. The country is so far up north and more than two thirds of the people live close to the US border.

climate change could potentially turn frozen tundra into usable land.
Not really unfortunately. It will be warm enough to live there more comfortably, but the land isn’t very usable compared to where people live now. Most of the tundra has very thin rocky soil and it is waterlogged and swampy. Just because it is warmer there doesn’t mean the actual ground becomes like the soil farther south
Isn’t de-thawed permafrost really good for growing food tho? Besides the y’know possible disease and shit.
We don’t know what’s trapped inside the permafrost, as it thaws we might unleash some sort of super bacteria or even worse, the Reagan/Thatcher blood amalgam trapped beneath trapped below
The horrors of our cyberpunk future, where the Reagan flu or Thatcher cough take you…
Idk, from a nutrients/chemical standpoint probably? The issue is that there’s like an inch of two of it over bedrock, instead of feet worth of good topsoil. There just isn’t enough of it to grow food on the scale we do now with current methods. Not to say any of that is technically impossible, just that it would be a massive megaproject the likes of which humanity has rarely seen
That’s true… might happen that they pool all the permafrost earth into areas for farming. But indeed, a megaproject for the ages.
Probably the grasslands in Russia would be easier to manage. Just get a bunch of megafauna to stamp and poop around for a decade or two.
It’s not that simple. Sunlight is still an issue because that’ll still limit the growing season and the soil itself is extremely poor.
No it couldn’t. The soil in the vast majority of Canada is shit/nonexistent. The good soil is in the southern parts of the country and already being farmed. The northern parts are all bedrock with a thin layer of pine needles sprinkled on top. Good luck growing anything on that.
that global warming could make a lot more of the country liveable?
Global warming was melting roads in Canada like 2 years ago

Maybe. I didn’t think about this angle.
