Quote by: grandpa  But calling a whole region of the world "backwards" seems both futile and pompous. Futile because all regions are "backwards" in one way or another -- and pompous for that same reason.
It's also in the eye of the beholder. One might call a region without prohibition "backwards," or one might think prohibition is.
