If you could change one regime or leadership of any world country, other than your own, what would it be and what would you change it into?
Definitely Russia into a liberal democracy for me. I love the Russian culture, and it hurts me to see it in a homophobic dictatorship,

I'd also pick Russia and change it into a democracy, but one that leans conservative.

Homophobic dictatorship? You realize Putin could criminalize homosexuality if he wanted, and it would have the support of the vast majority of the Russian population?

China, since that would affect the most people.

Actually, change my opinion. Iran. Iran needs to be a democracy, an ally of America and Israel, and a place where everyone can visit and enjoy the beauty and history of Persian culture.

Peaceful ROC takeover of China. Turn Saudi Arabia and Iran into secular democracies. Have someone more sensible takeover in Turkey from Erdogan.

Russia, given the fact that God Emperor Trump would have to listen to Americans for governing advice with Putin out of the way.

Either Russia or Suadi Arabia. Though something like Poland for Russia or Iraq for SA are the best case scenarios.

Definitely Saudi Arabia. They're our least acknowledged frenemy.

North Korea, because a successful regime change there likely wouldn't result in someone as bad or worse than the Kims taking power.  I don't know if I could say the same thing for the Middle Eastern countries or Russia.

1. Russia. Andrei Kozyrev would be Foreign Minister/Deputy PM, Nikolay Bordyuzha would be leader of the Russian military, Valentin Yumashev would be VP, Anatoly Chubais would be Prime Minister, and Maria Gaidar would be President.
2. China. Hong Kong and Taiwan's democratic influence, when unified with China, was determined as potentially democratizing the rest of China. Wu'erkaixi, Liu Gang, Wang Dan, Phu Ziqiang, Chai Ling, Feng Congde, Li Lu, Zhang Boli, Chaohua Wang, Hou Dejian, Shen Tong, Wang Hui, Cui Juan, and Sheng Xue would all be involved in the new Chinese government, as would Albert Ho(of Hong Kong) and Freddy Lim and Huang Kuo-Chang(of Taiwan).

Having China evolve gradually into a liberal, parliamentary democracy (following Taiwan's example) would be a game-changer in a way a democratic Russia would not be.

When you realize how much humanity would benefit from the change of so many regimes...
Yeah, China, Iran, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and NK would be great too. I'd also change Jordan to a sensible Palestinian democracy so that they can the West Bank. But I'm sticking with Russia as my top choice.

I'm sick and tired of Obama too, but that change will take place twenty days from now.
