Bosnia according to the CIA factbook:
Quote
Natural resources:   
coal, iron ore, bauxite, copper, lead, zinc, chromite, cobalt, manganese, nickel, clay, gypsum, salt, sand, forests, hydropower 

I now need six people, two pickaxes, an ax. I will take the liberty to dump the anvil, it will give us more space for food and booze.

Hydropower means flowing water! Water means... Carp! You are doomed!
Also, I actually own a copper pickaxe. The head's broken in the sense that it sometimes sildes on the handle, but nevertheless.

Oh yeah. Toulouse, France.

Oh, and, I live near a lake with carps. Yeah. I even saw a heroic fisherman gut one to death! Oh wait, it was already dead.  :(

No, not commiting suicide, sorry.   ...Through that money is rather tempting...

Make sure to keep your doors locked.

Sadly, there's no magma. There's plenty of flux and underground rivers, though, as it's mostly limestone over here. Anyway, once you get established I'm coming over to offer your fort my soap making skills.

Chelyabinsk, Russia.

Isn't that the hardcore city nearby the concrete-lake of radioactive waste - second only the the Chernobyl area in nuclear contamination? Must be an interesting city full of interesting, brave or insane people. I always thought it would be cool to go there actually.

Sometimes I wonder why, instead of playing STALKER or Fallout 3, I don't just move to Russia.

The funny thing about areas with high nuclear contamination is that there are fewer mutated babies (of any species) in them than in areas that have low nuclear contamination (and therefore, pesticides.  Farming's gotta be on "clean" soil, y'know).

Natural selection at work.

This is about 10 minutes drive from my house:

Te-mata Peak and the Tukituki river, From the top of that peak, there is a mountain bike trail that goes all the way down (not on the cliffed side pictured... the opposite side).
