Is Norway. I don't know the whole story yet, I'll be reading it right after I post this xD however I do know Norway was ranked by the UN to have the best quality of living, Niger was ranked the worst and the United States of America is ranked..... wait for it.... 13th???
Norway is a great place to visit. Heck, I'd emigrate if it weren't for the language and the weather. My family and I would stick out like sore thumbs, but that's ok, too.
How on earth did Vatican City not win or Monaco (it's not like they have taxes to grumble about). But I'm not overly surprised that it was a scandinavian country that ranked the highest, despite their stereotypically high suicide rates I never hear of them complaining alot.
the United States of America is ranked..... wait for it.... 13th???
They should have surveyed some Katrina survivors. 13th is probably pretty good for it.
I live in the city that has the second worst traffic, the worst sales tax in US, has the slowest/least efficient/most stolen or lost mail in US for some time now, has almost as much corruption as the entire state of Louisiana, and has been rated the most stressful to live in two years in a row.
I think it is "technically". In days gone by when it ahd all the Papal States it would have been more believable. But as shown it meets all the criteria even if it is "70% the size of the mall in Washington D.C."
