At this point I'm just living vicariously through Syrian and South Korea as a way of coping with our own democratic backsliding.

That's healthy, right?

My impression is that Ghana has been a fairly stable democracy for about three decades or so. Which probably is why the country isnтАЩt in the news so much. In that regards, I guess itтАЩs similar to Botswana and Costa Rica: islands of longtime stability.

Botswana and Costa Rica have had uninterrupted democracy for much longer than that, though.
