Answer 1

i don't think ther is a country that would totally depend on tourism.

Answer 2

Most of Asia.I've seen how Indonesia's been hit since Sept 11th.Went there 10 years before,it was poor(apart from Bali) but they had food and some spending money,after Sept 11th they were desperate to get money for food and it's still pretty much like that now.

Answer 3

One such country is Sri Lanka and also parts of Indonesia as demonstrated in the aftermath of the Sunami.

Answer 4

Aruba

Bermuda

Jamaica

St Barts

Saint Kitts

Many island nations benefit from tourist dollars.  Tourist dollars are icing on the cake of simple living.

Basic lifestyles keep inhabitants self sufficient.  Food clothing and shelter in a tropical paradise is a descent proposition.

Answer 5

Different parts of the Amazon (which I know is not a country but it crosses so many it's hard to narrow it down).  Many people in those countries rely on tourism to sustain themselves.  Remember tourism is the world's largest industry and constantly growing.,  I don't know about a whole country collapsing from tourism stopping but many would be seriously hurt from it.

Answer 6

UK has a lot of tourists.
