The UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) has updated its travel advice for Turkey last week after three suicide bombers killed 45 people at Atatürk International Airport in Istanbul.
A new map uses the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office's (FCO) information to illustrate which countries in the world are considered safe to visit and where caution should be exercised.

African and Asian nations were deemed the most dangerous due to high levels of terrorism and corruption, while warnings have also been put in place for areas of Russia and South America.
Travellers are advised to be cautious while travelling in northern parts of South America, particularly Colombia, due to the Zika virus outbreak, gang violence, and drug smuggling. The FCO's website warns: “In general, the more remote the area, the greater the potential threat to your safety.”
Russia was deemed to be mostly safe, but conflict along the border with Ukraine and further south means tourists should avoid travelling to those particular areas.
A fully interactive version of the map can be seen on the Indy100's original article, or you can see how your country fares on the FCO's website.
