France is a continental European nation bordering Spain to the south, Belgium to the north, Germany to the Northeast, Austria to the east, and Italy to the southeast. France contains a population of 62,616,488 in its borders. France's land mass is also 260,558 square miles. France's gross domestic product per capita is also $41,051 (USD). France borders the Atlantic Ocean to the West, and the Mediterranean Sea to the Southeast. The prime national language of France is French. The national currency of France is the Euro. The ethnic make-up of France is primarily Caucasian, but African and Middle-Eastern minorities are also a substantial demographic in France.

France is a G8 Nation, as well as a member of the EU. Observing the photographs from Google Earth, it would seem as if there were a considerable number of people of many different cultures occupying France's metropolitan areas. Seeing as how it borders several different countries with distinctive cultures, I suppose that would have to make sense. Ostensibly, it is also as well developed as the United States. I couldn't see a picture of one single person living in a cardboard box in any one of the panoramic photographs.

Azerbaijan is a tiny nation bordering the continents of Europe and Asia which shares its borders with the countries of Russia, Georgia, Armenia, and Iran to the North, Northwest, West, and South respectively. As of 2011, the population of Azerbaijan is 8,781,100. The land area of Azerbaijan is 33400 square miles. Azerbaijan's GDP per head is currently at $4,899 (USD). Notable lakes and bodies of water abutting Azerbaijan include the Caspian Sea to the East. The national language of Azerbaijan is Azerbaijani. The Azerbaijani banknote is the manat. The predominant ethnic group in this country is the Azeri, followed by the Dagestani and the Russian ethnic groups.

Judging from the trapping of the resort as featured in this picture, it could be inferred that Azerbaijan is a decadent Middle-Eastern nation. Surprisingly, however there aren't a lot of tourists present in any of the pictures or the 360 bubbles. I could glean from this that tourists are avoiding all nations approximating Iraq or Afghanistan. The buildings also have a considerable number of features which liken them to buildings that can be found in Europe and America. There are also plenty of telephone lines, so communication probably wouldn't be any concern for a citizen of Azerbaijan.

Costa Rica is a continent situated between Northern and Southern America, bordering Nicaragua to the North and Panama to the South, and between the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean on its east and west coasts, respectively. Costa Rica possesses a population of 4,578,945 people. Costa Rica also possesses a land area of a little more than 19,730 miles. Costa Rica's GDP per capita is $6,386. Costa Rica's most notable body of water is Lake Arenal, which can be located right next to the base of the Arenal Volcano in Costa Rica. The most prolific national language in the country of Costa Rica is Spanish. The Costa Rican currency is the Colon. The ethnic demographic, in order of each respective group's size, are the mestizo Costa Ricans, followed by the Black/Carib Costa Ricans, which are followed by the Amerindians and the Chinese.

Costa Rica is a coastal South-American Nation. For a third-world nation, it seems as if everything from its gentry to its economy are much more developed than the GDP of its citizens would suggest. A lot of colonization from Spain has ostensibly happened here earlier, which would explain the prevalence of Spanish as a national language. The rich, lush vegetation would also suggest a humid, balmy climate. A lot of people in the pictures also seem to be tourists, so one would glean from the pictures that Costa Rica is a state with a thriving tourism industry.

Canada also boasts a significant economy, as indicated by the decadence of their amusement parks (Which can be observed from the picture below). Contrary to the incredibly high rate of violence in Juarez, Mexico, Vancouver has been rated by Forbes as the safest place to live.
