Brazil is led by a reactionary who understands nuance less than your average reddit troll, yet Lula is probably the best president they've had in 20 years.
Russia. Wants to rule Europe but it's military is only slightly more competent than a bunch of 12 year old boys with airsoft guns and a 12 pack of Monster drinks.

West Taiwan aka China. Should focus on taking eastern Russia instead of trying to cause a massive war by invading Taiwan.
South Africa. The least insane of the bunch.
If Tr*mp wins, the US will probably sign up. It'll have to be called ABRICS though cuz 'Murica First!
