[This thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=736232) did pretty well; 49 out of 50 US states accounted for so far and I’m still hopeful we will get someone from Delaware to post. But now it’s time to find out just how diverse we are here at the SDMB and how much of the globe we cover. So tell me, what is your country of residence? Or nation, territory, kingdom, sovereign state, republic, principality, commonwealth, etc. I’ll start- I live in the USA. ---
