    My analysis highlights a compelling and counterintuitive trend, revealing that wealthier nations tend to exhibit lower generosity scores compared to their less affluent counterparts. Notably, Myanmar stands out with the highest generosity score across the entire dataset from 2015 to 2023, while Finland, despite its high GDP per capita, registers a below-average generosity score during the same period. This intriguing finding opens avenues for further exploration and research to deepen our understanding of the underlying factors shaping generosity patterns in different countries. The apparent discrepancy between economic prosperity and charitable behaviors invites a closer examination of societal, cultural, and governmental influences on philanthropy, offering valuable insights into the complexities of national well-being.

    This report is always biased towards rich countries

      That's true. And I think they literally mentioned that as one of the biggest factors - "GDP per capita".

      Im not saying its not but isnt that what youd expect? Kinda hard to be happy when you always wondering how youre going to pay next months rent or buy groceries this week. 🤷‍♂️

      ​@@sahilchawla9339right. Does that not make sense? The better of financialy someone is, not necessarily the happeir they WILL be but CAN be without all that extra worry and stress weighing them down.

      ​@@JohnDoe-yt3wvIf money is a measure of happiness then how come I never see Mark Zuckerberg smile? 😂 Anyway, rich people should throw money at poor people then everyone will be happy. Problem solved.

      @abcdef8915 as you said its A measure of happiness, not THE. There are most definitely other factors. im js. it's easier to be happy when you dont have to constantly stress about your finances. If you take the same person, everything about his life, his experiences, his thoughts and feelings EVERYTHING the same only changing whether or not he was financially stable enough to not be rich necessarily but not have to worry about how hes going to pay rent or feed his family, has a nice little nest egg going for retirement, a good bit in a rainy day savings fund, and some on the side for a yearly family vacation compared to that same person living that same life who doesnt have any savings, doesnt have a retirement fund, doesnt know for sure how hes going to scrimp and stretch and save enough to pay next months rent....who do you think is going to be happier?

    Each country has its own definition of happiness, each person as well. What makes you happy , it may doesn’t matter to me and vice versa 😁 have a good and happy day.

    So this is what I gather about your efforts:
    1. Craft a survey as the universal definition of happiness as decided by a small group of entitled global bureaucrats.
    2. Score entire national populations, across all walks of life, and reduce them all to a single number.
    3. Pit countries against each other in competitive happiness based on that single number, even if there is only a 0.02% difference.
    4. Draw sweeping conclusions about the mental states of entire nations.
    5. Lather, rinse, repeat.
    Sounds like reason to celebrate to me.

    The methodology is flawed. Most people in those high ranking countries are not happy, in fat the rates of depression is highest in these countries along with the rate of suicide. Going to poor countries and ask people if their lives could be better (which of course is a yes) is not the same as asking them if they are happy or at peace.

      Going by suicide rates the to ranking countries are all undeveloped/developing nation's with south Korea being an outlier. As for depression it is more likely that they are higher because developed countries have much more robust mental healthcare diagnosis. This is why Lesotho has the highest suicide rates and middling rates of depression.

      Lesotho has a high altitude. Studies have shown a strong correlation between altitude and suicide
