18. Happiness Across the World
Many people say that the key to living and having a successful life is happiness. But feeling happy isn’t as simple as it sounds, there are in fact many things that influence one’s ability to truly feel happy. Such as lifestyle, income, political situation, living conditions, clean water, clean air, and levels of freedom that they feel.
This map shows us the different levels of happiness felt throughout the world, with green being the highest and red being the lowest. It may not come as a shock to see that many of the westernized countries are generally much “happier” than other countries.
