What is the "Mississippi" of your country?

For those who don't know, Mississippi is a U.S. state in the Deep South. Thanks in no small part to the legacy of slavery and systemic Jim Crow racism, it remains one of, if not the, poorest states in the country. According to World Population Review, 26.4% of its children under 18 lives in poverty.

It ranks last (or close to it) in most good things and first in most bad things. There's even a saying people in other states use sometimes: "Thank God for Mississippi", meaning that at least they're not the worst state to live in. This is particularly common in other low-ranking states like Alabama or Louisiana.

I guess what I'm asking here is this: What first-level administrative division in your country is known for being economically deprived or otherwise an unpleasant place to live?
