    Energy self-sufficiency alone is not a parameter for developing this survival ranking. I would even go so far as to say that energy wouldn't even be among the three most important things to have at the “end of the world”:

    1. Drinking water
    2. Food
    3. Tools
    4. Weapons and ammunition for self-protection
    5. Solid and safe housing
    6. Pack animals
    7. Vegetation that filters radiation
    8. Agriculture
    9. Craftsmanship
    ....
    N. Energy

    Being an unarmed country is not synonymous with security at the “end of the world.” Being a pacifist is a better criterion.

    Institutional stability in a nuclear catastrophe? Forget it.

    In my opinion, the best place to be is on the edge of the Amazon rainforest. Stable climate, abundant vegetation, access to water and food, good hiding places for protection, and negligible temperature range.

    Reading a little Diogenes of Sinope would be beneficial.
