What Every Country in the European Union Is Best At

8 comments
  1. At first I was like “*Finland, you sure about that* 🤔” which quicky turned into “Boy, good job Latvia, Croatia and Chechia.” These are the real things that matter (I suppose shout out to Geece, too).

  2. Some of these categories are not really that positive. I tried to make a list of things EU countries are best at that are quite positive, but the sources are all from over 15 years so probably some are out of date.

    Most press freedom: Finland
    Most recycling: Germany
    Best income equaliyt: Sweden
    Best healthcare: France
    Lowest murder rate: Slovenia
    Highest % spending on education: Denmark
    Most with university degree per capita: Ireland
    Most spending on space per capita: Belgium
    Highest life expectancy: Spain
    Highest employment: Austria
    Lowest municipal waste per capita: Latvia
    Lowest obesity: Romania
    Best universities: United Kingdom
    Least poverty: Czech Republic
    Least crime: Luxembourg
    Least suicide: Malta
    Best HDI: Netherlands
    Highest economic growth (since 2005): Slovakia
    Lowest public debt: Estonia
    Most UNESCO cultural sites per capita: Cyprus

    Still missing Bulgaria, Croatia, Hungary, Poland, Portugal, Greece. Any ideas?

    You know a ‘what everyone in the EU is worst at’ would be more fun..
