Greatest Country in the world

[Hereiam]

In your opinion what is the greatest country in the world at this point of time.
For me it has to be Iceland. Its has wonderful scenery and its government stands up for its peoples interests.

At this point of time it doesn't get bright until 9am, a good place for a lie in.

Whats the criteria?

People?
Culture?
Governance?
Weather?
Cusine?
Wealth?
Happiness?
Landscape?
Religion/Philosophy?


I'd imagine all of those would contribute but what should their weighting be?

I'd say  Bhutan would strike fairly high in many of the above categories

Yeah, god bless them good old days when a bullsh1tter could spin any auld yarn and no one could contradict him, even though they knew he was wrong!

If the criterion is 'which country does most good in the world?', here's the suggested answer.

It's worth watching all through, but skip to 12:21 if you can't wait.

I missed this but does the index measure what people globally judge to be good acting countries or does it directly measure the good that countries do? Still cool either way but if its the former i can't help but think of Twain's quip, "give a man a reputation of an early riser, and he can sleep till noon..."
