    Austrailia -top dog on global and environmental concerns primarily because of the dramatic way it’s affecting them.

    America – overindulged and having a harsh reality check.

    Indonesia- struggling and in need of help on all fronts -dependent on global trade.

    New Zealand – ?

    Canada – still the independent thinkers who don’t get riled easily. They just want to keep to themselves and don’t want to stir up trouble.

    England – Just as ignorant in many areas as America. Easily swayed by political views and affiliations wtihout proof. Prone to stereotype others.

    Ireland – In turmoil and unrest but generally has a solid foundation to survive and prosper on small scale.

    France – excellent scientific facilities, research, etc. Prone to extravagences.

    Italy – About the same as England but with much better food and much nicer people.

    BUT I REALLY HAVE NO BASIS FOR ANY OF THIS. Purely speculative based on what I see in the media and read in books or news magazines.
