      Please look at excess deaths per 100K inhabitants the last 4 years aka the C0VlD pnademic, Finland has much higher excess deaths than for example Sweden. Finland's news media has not informed public about dangers of C0VlD. Finland's own CDC is much more evil than USA's CDC. Look at the finnish news the past 7 days. We had many stabbings in the most pro-virus city that is city of Oulu. Even president A. Stubb and all ministers had to speak out that violence & stabbings need to be stopped with strong forces immeadiately. C0VlDdenial, minimizing, disinformation, misinformation, gaslighting destroyed this country. Vaccine boosters have been almost impossible to get the past 2 years, that is huge differnce to Sweden. Sweden constantly promoted in tv adds for the importance of booster vaccine uptake. Sweden's own CDC fired herdimmunity leader A.Tegnell in the very beginning. Thus sending message that C0VlD is actually very dangerous. C0VlD, LongC0VlD & ME continues to disable workers, and sick workers are causing hundreds of billions of damage to economy in USA, Europe,,Australia💸💸💸

    Everyone from every country should follow their example. The majority of them seem to live a fulfilling, meaningful, humble, peaceful, and content lifestyle who are not focused on capitalism, jealousy, envy, greed, and money. They are more focused on the important values in life and strive towards achieving a positive, healthy, balanced, kind, and peaceful life. Plus, most of them are smart and well rounded. They also embrace good morals and are grateful for everything they have. These are the teachings from GOD. It’s in the Bible.
    There’s nothing wrong with desiring wealth but it seems like most people in this world, especially in the USA, let that consume them to the point where they lose sight of good morals, values, gratitude, and humility. Sadly, that will only lead to misery and an unfulfilling life. Finland is great!

      I'm sorry to say but in Finland there are lots of atheists and it is probably one of the most secular countries in the world. Only a small minority goes to church (unless it is a funeral), prays on a regular basis or even talks about religion. So I don't think the "happiness" in this case has a lot to do with God. - A Finn

    The people in Finland are often melancolic but the government in Finland has built the nation for the people much more than most other nations so that is the reason for Finland being the happiest nation in the world. To compare with a different nation I can use my own country as an example. Sweden is mostly built for the elit so Sweden as a nation is less happy.

      Sweden too is ranked high, the 4th this year. Sweden has been a model for Finland in many ways, but naturally there are differences too. Like, Sweden has grown wealth longer and Sweden is also more of a class society than Finland. Anyways, Sweden is the closest neighbor for Finland, especially these days, after joining Nato together.
