  1. Damn pretty sure life expectancy in US is only 78 but you do you

    Edit: Hello I’m moron, and i can’t tell difference between US and Canada I’m ashamed

  2. So what you are saying is, if you are European, you really don’t want to be in the EU or you die sooner than if you were outside it?

    FACTS DO NOT LIE!

    (This is a joke. I know how statistics work and averages).

  3. Eastern Europe this is a friendly request to stop drinking so much yall fall over at 50 were trying to be the rest of the world here (and we are below britain so yea i wanna shoot myself)

  4. Does Greenland have a bad life expectancy? (Comparing this to the countries colored on the map)

  5. The EU’s result isn’t too bad but I also need to question comparing an average of 27 different states with their own healthcare systems and of varying economic strength to single states with a single healthcare system.

  6. You could still colour the EU member states black and grey. No need to exclude them. They can also have a higher or lower average life expectancy than the EU as a whole, and that would also provide interesting information

  7. I started thinking: Well that’s not fair there are probably big variations within the E…. Wait 81?? That’s really good! It’s 83 here if I remember correctly so that’s not that far off.

  8. This is one of the stupidest map ever done. Let’s lump together a median value with absolute percentage, because “reason”.

    For what is worth, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Norway, Switzerland and Iceland all have higher life expectancy than Australia, Canada and UK

  9. Honestly, from an EU country that ranks way above average (or below if the better score is less) in almost all EU rankings, these kinds of maps seem pointless. This makes it look like we’re worse off than a lot of countries, when we’re not.

  10. In Italy for example the life expectancy is of 80 years old for males and 84 years old for females
    Pretty pointless map in my opinion

  11. Petition to invade Iceland, Norway and Switzerland to increase our Life Expectancy average.

    We’ll start of course by sending the germans with towels to occupy all the coastal areas.

  12. So is this an average expectancy for the EU? How is it calculated? My guess is it is an average and keep in mind in the EU there are countries with the same / higher expectancy compared to Canada for example.
