If you speak Russian...I say Russia. If you speak engrish (see what I did there?) I'll say Northern Canada for the win.
All this talk about relocating to South Africa is ridiculous. Everyone wants to move to a temperate climate. More people, the more they need baby sitters (government).
If you want to truly "be on your own", ungoverned, free" you head to a more hostile enviroment where the masses won't flock...and there isn't anyone there in the first place to fuck with ya.
Not a drone for 3000 miles...just something to think about...

Can You Pass This 8th Grade Exam From 1912?
museum in Kentucky has unearthed a rare find: an 8th grade exam given to students 100 years ago.
"For us, this is just fascinating," David Lee Strange, a volunteer at the Bullitt County History Museum, told ABC News. "It puts us in the mindset of 1912."
The exam spans eight subjects: spelling, reading, arithmetic, grammar, geography, physiology, civil government and history.
"Some people say that the questions are trivial, but the questions relate to what the children at the time would have been familiar with," Strange said.
For example, there's a geography query: "Locate the following countries which border each other: Turkey, Greece, Serbia, Montenegro, Romania."
An 8th grader today may have trouble with that one but "the students back then would have to be familiar with that part of the world," according to Strange.
Strange explained, "1912 was right around the corner from what would become World War I. Eighteen students in Bullitt County would go on to die in that war."
The exam also asks students to define the cerebrum and cerebellum, differentiate between copyright and patent rights, and define each part of speech in the English language.
Think you have what it takes to pass the 8th grade? Take a shot at these final exam questions:
How long of a rope is required to reach from the top of a building 40 feet high to the ground 30 feet from the base of a building?
What is a personal pronoun?
Through which waters would a vessel pass in going from England through the Suez Canal to Manila?
Compare arteries and veins as to function. Where is the blood carried to be purified?
During which wars were the following battles fought: Brandywine, Great Meadows, Lundy's Lane, Antietam, Buena Vista?
Sketch briefly Sir Walter Raleigh, Peter Stuyvesant.
Answers to the exam can be found on the Bullitt County History Museum's website.
