The World Happiness Report 2023, which came out on Monday, says that Finland is the happiest country in the world for the sixth year in a row. On Monday, the group released a list of the happiest countries in the world in 2023.
“Finland has been first for the past six years in a row. Afghanistan and Lebanon, which are still at the bottom of the list because of war, have average life evaluations that are more than five points lower (on a scale of 0 to 10) than the ten happiest countries, “the story said.
On the list, Denmark, Iceland, Israel, the Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Switzerland, Luxembourg, and New Zealand are also in the top 10. This year, Russia came in at number 70 on the list.
Bangladesh’s position on the list has dropped 23 spots since last year. People in Pakistan and Sri Lanka are happier than people in Bangladesh in Asia.
Lithuania is also the only new country in the top 20 that has moved up more than 30 spots since 2017.
Since 2012, the World Happiness Report has been done every year. It is based on things like GDP per capita, level of social support, life expectancy, respect for civil liberties, job security, level of corruption, and the results of public opinion polls.
