quote: This week, a top insurance company charted the world's most dangerous places to do business. Unsurprisingly, regions like Iraq, India and Russia were shaded brown on the "risk map", marking them as at severe risk from terrorism.
quote: But while most countries were classified as "guarded" risk or above, by Aon, the world's second-largest insurance broker, it also highlighted, in a calming sage-green, a handful of states dotted round the globe which remain unaffected by the seemingly ever-present terror threat.
I thought this was very interesting. It shades countries in five colours; light green, green, yellow, yellow-brown, and brown. Canada is green and the U.S. is yellow. It also highlights the threats, such as right wing, left wing, kidnap, single-interest, etc.
I wasn't really surprised by any of the ratings, except Iran, which is coloured Green!

You also must consider other risks, as well as what countries you're likely to have to travel through to get there.
