I suppose some smarty pants may try to throw in some spin and say the United States or Saudi Arabia or Russia or India should be on the list of the top six. But this article on entrenched corruption I think is an accurate assessment. In order from worst (Somalia, the order is actually descending)) to include Angola, according to MarketWatch:

Angola
South Sudan
Sudan
Afghanistan
North Korea
Somalia

Since I actually know Angola, I can assure you there are a lot of reasons it is among the six, in this assessment it is number one most corrupt. As I said in a previous post, and now with the crash in the oil commodity market I predicted civil war in Angola is coming and we will be seeing likely ISIS levels of violence there soon, though violence is not necessarily the same as corruption, but corrupt indeed is Angola.

Four of the six are in Africa. No surprise to me. I guess some can argue what is "Africa".

I do not count Afghanistan as "Middle East" even though it shows up on every map of the ME. To me, Afghanistan is part of the Persia-Afghan-Pak-India block, whatever. You notice that while the ME has huge issues, as far as violence inclusive, when it comes to corruption not one ME nation is on the list (nor do I call Sudan or Somalia as ME, again it is African to my view). I suppose some would expect the ME to way heavily, but I think this is not necessarily going to make the sixth though ISIS should have made the list as one of the most corrupt in my opinion but I guess the Islamic State is not yet considered a "country" and hasn't been around long enough to get the "entrenched" part of the "corruption(s)" so that is the only reason I can think of as to why it isn't one of the six.

North Korea is on the list. Obviously. What a sick, corrupt, and not good place to live to say the least, country is the Hermit Kingdom. So we got only one Asian country on the top six, and really fatso is the reason it deserves to be. If someone could put poison in fatso's donut that would go a long way in getting NK off the list.

Have at it.
