The World's Most Dangerous Countries (According To The British Government)

What to study

Curiosity Gap

An official list of places too dangerous to visit is hard to scroll past, even if you'd never go. The map shows a few in red and crops out the rest, so you want the full list.

How the packaging works
Title

The bracket gives the ranking an official source, so it feels settled rather than one person's take, and it tells British viewers it's their own government's travel advice.

Thumbnail

DO NOT VISIT is a flat order in yellow on black, and the red arrow lands on Sudan, so you get the warning and an example at once.

Remix this

When an official body publishes a warning list in your field, name the source in the title so it reads as fact. Put the warning as a command in the thumbnail, and show only part of the list.
