East Africa. I just like the idea.

The Canary Islands.

I like tropical, and it's Spain, so part of the western world.

I’ve got a bug out zone extremely close to a bordering country that’s self sufficient. Staying put unless things get wildly out of hand. We could probably house another 2 families if needed.

I am going to timetravel to the 1890s

The historian Zeev Sternhell has traced the ideological roots of fascism back to the 1880s and in particular to the fin de siècle theme of that time

(Wikipedia )

So if you could timetravel back a bit more and see if rebooting fixes this whole thing...
