Copenhagen, Denmark
A Happy Survey (And yes such a survey exists sponsored by government agencies) revealed that Denmark is the happiest country in the world. A total of 350,000 people in various countries were asked these two simple question:
"Taking all things together, would you say you are very happy, rather happy, not very happy, not at all happy?" And, "All things considered, how satisfied are you with your life as a whole these days?"
Denmark scored the highest, followed by Puerto Rico and Colombia.
Here are some of the rankings of other countries in which DF has a high readership:
Canada 9th place
Sweden 14th place
New Zealand 15th place
United States 16th place
Belgium 20th place
United Kingdom 21rst place
Australia 22nd place
Germany 35th place
It seems that the Greeks are not as happy with their country as we would of thought. Cyprus ranked in at 28th place and Greece in 58th place. (Are you serious?)
DF: The good news for all the countries is that 'happiness' has been on the rise. How they measure this...we wish we knew!
