Interesting because I was thinking that the women did not look classically nordic.

They have been accepted into NATO and are awaiting formal membership.

The angst is relieved by that and by watching the quality of Russia’s military in action.

I like cold. Hot weather gives me anxiety.

I would choose Finland over the US any day. Hungary and Serbia are the best countries in Europe, but Finland is probably the best Western European country.

Andorra and Lichtenstein also seem happy and serene.

Not for me. I would move to a near artic circle country in a minute. I love being inside with electric lights and cozy fires and candles.

Everyone in Northern Europe loves the Gulf Stream! I love it at its present 82°...

That might be a little bit of it.

But to be fair, that doesn't explain the previous 5 years.

I know but that wasn’t really what the throwaway post 7 was about and my response was really a throwaway response to it.

Yeah, it was just light banter. :-)

Although I must say “security concerns” must not be considered much, what with Israel coming in at #4.

No need to join NATO if they are so happy.

Cold climate and weather brings clarity and higher IQs.
When it is cold take a good walk outside. Breathe deeply and take in lungfuls of glorious clear air. A gift from God.

Proven by moi.

This ranking is based on what the rankers think should make people happy, not the actual happiness of the populations.
