Answer:

The correct answer is: Afghanistan.

Step-by-step explanation:

Afghanistan is considered the world's largest opium producer since the end of the twentieth century. Unfortunately, the proceeds of the production have mostly gone to illegal activities. It s estimated that over ninety percent (90%) of Afghanistan's opium crop goes to illicit heroin production worldwide.
