Greece

Greece is the best country ever. In practically any category of country comparison, Greece comes out on top. Greece has a long history of being the absolute best, too.

Consider the following firsts and bests Greece has on its score sheet:

• Inventing democracy.
• Inventing philosophy.
• Inventing science.
• Smartest person of all time: Aristotle.
• Greek people are the best looking. Case in point: John Stamos and Jennifer Aniston are both of Greek extraction. Imagine how good looking their kids would be. I bluster at the thought.
• Not only did greek people invent athletics, but the best athlete of all time, Shaquille O'Neal, goes by the nickname "The Big Aristotle." This is to imply that his athleticism is Greek inspired.
• Best all-purpose pastry? The phyllo.
• Best ever military leader? Alexander the Great. (Note: for the purposes of this review, Macedonia is in Greece).

The Greek people can also lay claim to very worthwhile advances in the fields of yogurt making, mathematics, and income tax evasion.

All in all, it makes for a great country.
