I am from Pakistan and was funded by YC. I know at least 6 people in current batch who are from Pakistan however we were not running our startups from Pakistan. I have seen startups from multiple regions.Being from PK obviously reduces your chances because of the small market size if you are focused locally. In addition, VC like to invest in bigger economies and a startup close to them. Exceptions already exist.

Summary: If you are from PK, be extremely good
