Low crime, pretty strong nationalism, secular
Economy is fucked because of corruption
Overall pretty good for the middle east

It's the least religious 'Islamic' country. Basically proof that Islam turns everything to shit.
How many niggers are there in Azerbaijan?
Yeah, thought so.

Azerbaijan gets Islam right by being secular, shia etc but it is pretty corrupt and I think the same family has controlled the country for decades now.

Considering that most of the ME is packed with Salafist nuts and subhuman inbred Arabs, that's not a very high bar to clear.

Dictatorship. State controlled media. 81% of export is oil, which is worthless now. The average income has dropped to shit. State run propaganda left and right. Essentially turks.
There is a storm brewing...

How so? There are more Azeris in Iran than there are in Azerbaijan, yet there is no irredentist movement to speak of. I'm not saying it'd be a great thing because Iran would crush them, but a country with "pretty strong nationalism" would have one with such a huge population in a neighboring country.
