The best country would have: * EU floor numbers (ground floor is 0th) * Also Global South floor numbers (don't skip 4th or 13th) * East Asian date format (YYYY-MM-DD) * EU time (24 hour) * Also non-Western time (no DST) * Anywhere-but-US units (meters, kg) * OK fine, if I can have all of the above I'll use Fahrenheit

ok I’m kind of curious to play this out… what about other things? topology? urban design of its cities? Basic laws you would implement? Key trade areas to prioritize? structure / norms of governance?

* Timers on all signals indicating how long before walkers can cross * Doors that pull to enter (and obvious on how to open) * Appliances that produce a sonorous sound (not multiple digital high pitched beeps, a la GE, Instapot) once they are complete

Singapore comes pretty close! Metric system, no DST, and tolerant of the 24-hour clock though not always the default. Floor numbering is a mixed bag though - some buildings start at GF and others at 1.

I’m down with all of this except Fahrenheit. Celsius is perfect, especially for weather and cooking due to the correlations with water’s state changes. I also support European DD-MM-YYYY though I see your point about it being easiest to sort with year first.
