Lebanon

Also known as the "cemetery of dreams" by many Lebanese people, it is the center of corruption, lawlessness, misogyny, sexism, unemployment, racism, sectarianism, and anxiety.

Rocked by one of history's most powerful non-nuclear explosions on August 8, 2020, Lebanon's capital is specifically famous for its inter-sectarian conflicts. As a matter of fact, no one has been held accountable for that explosion yet, although many of the ruling politicians were aware of the presence of the ammonium nitrate that caused the explosion! Getting shot by stray bullets is a part of a citizen's daily life in the country, but worry not because there will always be a part of the rich elite trying to delude itself that Lebanon, where the population is sinking in poverty and famine, is the best country in the world!

Most importantly, Lebanon is Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness. Notorious for its incessant power cuts, often leaving those who rely on Électricité du Liban for electricity in the darkness for days, Lebanon is every emo or goth person's destination. Not only will the darkness guide you, but you will also find every needed reason to decide you no longer want to stay alive.

You'll struggle to put food on the table, get medical treatment, and afford an education, but you'll certainly be able to visit the beach and the mountains in less than an hour! That is, if you can afford fuel.

Live, Love, Lebanon!
