7. Iraq
Corruption Percentage Index: 16
As if the war wasn’t bad enough, Transparency International’s report claims that corruption is rampant in Iraq. The level of corruption there is very disturbing, and naturally it is mostly present among the ones at the top – the ones leading the country (forward or backward?). One of the corruption issues in the previous year that helped Iraq climb this high on the list of most corrupt countries in the world is the Revelation of 90 Corruption Files Condemn Ministries. Also, we shouldn’t forget the people there who were protesting against their government, hence making it obvious to the entire world that serious issues are going on.
