And the happiest country in the world is…

01 Norway :cheers:
For the third year, Norway ranked no. 1. With per capita GDP of $54,000 it is among the richest in the world and ranks first in social capital and second in safety and security.02 Denmark :cheers:
Denmark is no. 2 for the third year. The tiny country ranks first in entrepreneurship and opportunity, based on high levels of social equality, high connectivity and the world's lowest start-up costs.
03 Australia :cheers:
Australia has moved up from fifth place in 2009, the result of excellent education, an efficient government bureaucracy and booming trade in natural resources.
04 New Zealand :cheers:
New Zealand ranks no. 2 in governance, education and personal freedom. No country ranks higher in tolerance for immigrants.
05 Sweden :cheers:
High levels of political participation and social equality combine with environmental protection and 123 mobile phones per 100 people to create a tech-savvy socialist paradise. ABBA, Volvo, H&M, Ericsson, Lasse Larsen
06 Canada :cheers:
The most prosperous nation in the Americas, Canada ranks first in personal freedom. As befitting a giant landmass with only 30 million people, Canada is very tolerant and welcoming.
07 Finland :cheers:
As with its Scandinavian sisters, religion is an afterthought in Finland, with just 13% attending church; yet it ranks 3rd in education and entrepreneurship.
08 Switzerland :cheers:
Number 1 in governance, 2nd in health and economy. Sticking with the Franc rather than going Euro has helped make Switzerland a bastion of stability in shaky Europe right now.
09 Netherlands :cheers:
A robust democracy with broad civil liberties and lots of social cohesion, 90% of the Dutch report deriving daily enjoyment from their natural surroundings.
10 United States :cheers:
An excellent place to start a business, the U.S. also ranks no. 1 in health, a function of high immunizations, clean water and the highest levels of gov't spending on healthcare.

Good to know(:

In retrospect, the list is stating the obvious.

Why even respond to a post from 2014?
There have been a million "happy country rankings" since then, and in many cases, they are poorly researched and overly generalized.
Any current polls from academic sources with your Brazil in the Top Ten? Perhaps create one and post it yourself.
