Corruption, greed, apathy…

 so many things are wrong with the world in general, not just countries separately. ):

 A lot of people in my country try to make themselves happy through illusions and fantasy. Video games and television are a good example. People would rather sit down and watch a television show about a fake life than live their own real life. It's really sad, and becoming a big problem. Everyone is selfish and only wants to make themselves happy, but no one really knows what true happiness is.

4- old-aged population, most of the people is old, young people don't want to have children.
