I know you already have your countries chosen but I would like to put in a request of two countries integral to my story. Tibet and Bhutan. Here is a comment on Bhutan :
ReplyDeleteWhile filming a documentary about optimism for ABC—Michael J. Fox: Adventures of an Incurable Optimist—Michael traveled to Bhutan, a kingdom in the Himalayas that measures the gross national happiness of its citizens.

Thank you for your consideration :) I know you aren't taking requests and maybe by luck you already have these. If not I just realized I can add them in on my own- duh :) LOL
Here is a better link for anyone interested. This was an AMAZING documentary! http://extrahappiness.com/happiness/?p=1028

quote from article:
"The thing that really struck me was his trip to Bhutan. Apparently, this small Buddhist nation situated between China and India has a government policy that dictates happiness. Instead of a Gross National Product, they’ve adopted the idea of Gross National Happiness. According to an article in this week’s New York Times, the Bhutanese constitution clearly states that government programs should be judged by the happiness they bring rather than by the economic benefit. And Bhutan’s Prime Minister Jigme Thinley says things like this: “Happiness is complete well-being…being content with what is and with what one has.” Wow.
But the remarkable kicker came later in the segment, when Fox, who traveled to Bhutan to report the story, discovers being surrounded by such happiness diminished his Parkinson symptoms. He could hike up a mountain, the jerking motions that plague him dissipated and in general, this natural optimist just felt better.”
