Finland has a lot to celebrate.
Not only does it have a capital city bursting with gastronomic creativity, the spectacular Northern Lights and Santa Claus's year-round home (plus the reindeer support staff) in Lapland. It's also the happiest country in the world for the second year in a row, according to the latest World Happiness Report.
It's followed by Denmark, Norway, Iceland and The Netherlands.
The World Happiness Report was released by the Sustainable Development Solutions Network for the United Nations on March 20, the United Nations has declared to be International Day of Happiness.
The report ranks countries on six key variables that support well-being: income, freedom, trust, healthy life expectancy, social support and generosity.
"The top 10 countries tend to rank high in all six variables, as well as emotional measures of well-being," says report co-editor John Helliwell, a professor emeritus of economics at the University of British Columbia.

There are no brown people.
Each is overwhelmingly Christian.
Finland is like 98% white.
Nothing new here. Socialism can work out fairly OK in mono-ethnic nations in Scandinavia. Prior to inviting in Islamic and African marauders. Now these nations are up for grabs.....Eloi style.

Was it Iceland that has aborted all Down’s babies?
So why does Finland have one of the highest suicide rates in Europe???
Man...
That’s just dang racist that those white folks be happy.
Because it’s cold
Finland, Lapland, Denmark, Norway, Iceland and The Netherlands --- all overwhelmingly post-Christian.
In terms of regular religious practice, there's probably a higher percentage of neo-pagans than Orthodox, Catholic or Protestant (no matter what the largely secularized baptismal records may deceptively show.)
Also sky-high anti-depressant use.
Just sayin'
I dont put much stock In this kind of poll. How do you measure happiness? Is one of the criteria the resignation of your entire government because your healthcare system is bankrupt?
Furthermore, I dont trust any group from the U.N., especially when it has sustainable in its name.
Well yeah, snow!
Well, we can't have that. Paging Barbara Lerner Specter....
Furthermore, I dont trust any group from the U.N., especially when it has sustainable in its name.
.
BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Same here.
This is absolute proof of white privilege.
Something must be done to make them less happy. Perhaps import more migrants?
I guess dead and suicidal people don’t fill out surveys.
“Each is overwhelmingly Christian. “
give it 5 more years as Norway is tilting raghead..
They all also have really relaxed drug laws. And Finland just overthrew their government.
