Czech Republic Among the Happiest, Richest, and Healthiest Countries in the World
The Legatum Institute released its 11th annual global Prosperity Index, a huge survey that ranks the most prosperous countries in the world.
The organization compared 104 variables to come up with its list. These variables include traditional indicators like per-capita gross domestic product and the number of people in full-time work, but also more interesting figures such as the number of secure internet servers a country has, and how well-rested people feel on a day-to-day basis.
The variables are then split into nine subindexes: economic quality, business environment, governance, personal freedom, social capital, safety and security, education, health, and natural environment.
- 28. Uruguay
- 27. Estonia
- 26. Czech Republic — Although the Czech Republic, now officially called Czechia, didn’t excel in any sub-index, it did finish in the top 30 in six of nine categories.
