Somalia.  War lord's minions drive around in pick-up trucks, or zoom around 
in motor-boats, powered by gasoline, with .30 or .50 caliber mounted 
'sheen-guns for their own enrichment by the power of deprivation under fire: 
improvement or not, over say, camels and scimitars?  On the plus side, 
Somali dissedents and intellectuals can either jet out, or go on the 
internet to say "get me outta here!"
