Nothing wants to kill you - no deadly spiders, snakes, volcanoes, earthquakes, few diseases (and free healthcare in case).

Also we have a great history...

My home country, Kenya, is a nation with a wonderful collection of friendly and out-going people. It is true that we have not had a very stable history, but my people have united against innumerable odds to leave the past behind and produce an incredibly caring environment. Kenya has become a new advocate for democracy in Africa, and regularly boasts champions in international competitions such as the Olympics.

India

 

 

• Nicobar Islands

 

 

Unlike the Andamans, the Nicobar Islands are untouched and pristine. The forests are lush and the beaches are surreal beyond explanation. However, foreigners would require passes to enter the Islands and no visitor is allowed to enter the tribal belts unless for some special purposes like research. And even for that one will have to go through rigorous formalities.

 

 

• Barren Islands, Andaman

 

 

The only active volcano in India is located in the Barren Island of Andaman and Nicobar. You can see red-hot lava and smoke erupting from the mouth of the volcano for a distance inside the safety of a small ship. However, no one is allowed to get any closer to the hill due to safety reasons.

Whatever place you're copy-pasting all this from is probably not trustworthy. Nainital is far from the biggest towns in India, lol.
