I voted Asia. Most of the Central and South American countries are flat out dangerous scary. But I'm dying to see Machu Pichu and Peru.

Thinking of them as "groups" is problematic, because in the South America and Asia groujps, there is no common ground connections. The Asian countries don't even have crossable borders with each other, except for Laos/Cambodia. You can hardly put Guyana and Paraguay in the same region, and it would be very hard to visit both countries in the same trip. Unless you are just talking about flying from one capital to another and not seeing much of the country.

It's probably also why they both have more votes than the Central America group since there's a lot more diversity in the other two groups.
