What County can I see all of this?


Los Angeles County, except we filled in the swamps and marshes years ago. Plenty of fresh and salt water fishing. Hunting still allowed in very limited areas (for now).

New Zealand. The North Island alone has many of the features of USA except when hours of each other. Tropics, rolling hills like Kentucky, Mountains like the Rockies, Coast lines similar to all of ours. (NW, NE, Gulf Coast, West Coast, etc..) Marsh areas, thermal areas, a more.

USA is #1, buy Japan amd Italy come close. Both have have snow skiing, beaches, farmland and large, international cities with history.

geography wise.



FWIW, a lot of that is not geography.

Even some of the very early explorers knew the wealth of the land was far greater than what the spanish was going to get out of the gold mines of Central and S America. The plains of the mid west was amazing to them.

New Zealand for its size being so small is pretty unreal


USA is a clear winner and other large countries can submit a bid as well. But I think New Zealand has to be the best "pound for pound" champ. It's crazy how much geographical diversity they have packed into a small area. Tropical beaches, snow capped mountains, volcanoes, fjords, glaciers, forests, caves, etc.. About the only thing they lack is a proper desert with red rocks, sand, etc.

China probably, Russia probably doesn’t come close.

America has various types of forrest’s mountains, hill country, parties, desserts, wetlands, tropical islands

Russia doesn’t come far enough south to get the southern climates and geography

Unless you are the idiot that want's to turn this political.


Diversity of people is not a political issue - - it is a social issue. People make it a political issue - - and I agree with you - - it is the idiots that do that.

Much of Canada is essentially a swamp that freezes, then thaws, then freezes again.
