If and only if he is rich and loves you. And will have children right away. And is NOT Muslim, because Islamic law will protect him and take away your babies without fault on your part. And at the drop of a hat.

It depends on what religions each of you are, and how strong a factor it is in your life. Many people see their religion as a habit, not a faith. It becomes irrelevant at that point.
If you are Lutheran, and your partner is Episcopalian, your common faith in a Christian God could overcome that small hurdle. If you are Lutheran and she is Satanic (you get the idea), if each of you are strong believers, there is no hope of having any commonality on life's most basic issues.
It is immaterial what country you wish to live in.
To those who have the "you keep you religion to yourself and I won't have one and we will be fine" mentality, they do not understand that a person of beliefs (people who choose to stand for something larger than their own desires), will be guided by them, and you won't. Even if you do not talk of your Bible, Torah, Koran, you will reason out your decisions with those teachings in mind. Inevitably, it will cause strife, because the religious person will not have latitude to compromise on some important issues, and it will seem unfair to the other party, who does not have any particular stand on life's most basic points.

I couldn't care less what religion he is, as long as he doesn't ask me take his religion or wear head and face coverings and that brings me to the country. If he would live in any country east and south of Europe then my answer is NO. I wouldn't move there for all the money in the world.

Yes I am an atheist and I married a christian from England (I'm from America). I offered to move to England but he chose to come to America as the type of work he does is more plentiful here than what I do so the decision on where to live really boiled down to economics.

No, not a good idea. Eventually, it will matter, especially after having children. You both need to be on the same page. There's enough tough stuff for couples to go through without adding one more issue. Besides, it would be so much better if you would have that in common than not. <*)))><

I NEVER WOULD.
having different religion would cause arguments later in marriage. and different way of living would be too hard to adjust to and anyone would want to stay where they already are familiar with. and have there roots. people in U.S. like to have their family close by them for support (if they are close to them), and if they have kids they want their kids to stay where they are comfortable at.
and if one or the other person do ask the other to move from their country where they live. they would resent that person later in life. they would miss their culture and friends and their way of life they were used to.(they would say: I moved for you), and that saying would cause lots of arguments and resentments and could cause a divorce.
so not a good idea.

no, i dont really believe in interreligious marriage, and interracial marriage is kind of iffy to me, although not due to racism, just because i think that everybody is intermarrying these days and i'm worried all of the pretty cultures and religions will soon disappear because of it and we will be left with.... blah, a bunch of people that are exactly the same, how depressing and boring a world that would be

If I were still single... I might marry a woman of another country... but not of another faith...
My Wife and I were married in the Salt Lake Temple... this could not have happened if one of us was not of our faith...
As such, we were sealed for all time... and our marriage does not end at death.

oh, so that we will be constantly disagreeing with one another? I think not.
If by "lives in a diff county" you mean "is a different race/nationality" than I have no problem with that.

I did it and we're happyily married.
I moved to her country, but she could have moved to mine as well; it wouldn't have made a big difference.
The different culture is rather fun, the problem was the different religion, but love can overcome every obstacle.
