    Also among the least religious in the world! Maybe religion isn’t really helping?

    Israel is in 8th place and very religious. It seems to me to be a combination of having a strong welfare state. What is intressting is that Costa Rica is that no country is really strong in every parameter. Many of the Nordic countries seem to be about the least willing to help strangers for example.

      Israel absolutely isn’t in 8th place. If we counted the responses from all the territories they occupied, it’d be dead last.

        The occupied territory has a population of 5.5million, while Israel itself has one of 10million. At the same time there are countries like Sudan. I doubt it is dead last.
