They just rated Denmark as the happiest city in the world the other day on the news..

It's the happiest country in the world while Burundi in Africa is the most unhappy, according to a new report by a British scientist released on Friday.

Adrian White, an analytical social psychologist at the University of Leicester in central England, based his study on data from 178 countries and 100 global studies from the likes of the United Nations and the World Health Organization.

"We're looking much more at whether you are satisfied with your life in general," White told Reuters. "Whether you are satisfied with your situation and environment."

The main factors that affected happiness were health provision, wealth and education, according to White who said his research had produced the "first world map of happiness."

Following behind Denmark came Switzerland, Austria, Iceland and the Bahamas.

At the bottom came the Democratic Republic of Congo, Zimbabwe and Burundi. The United States came in at 23rd, Britain was in 41st place, Germany 35th and France 62nd.

Countries involved in conflicts, such as Iraq, were not included.

"Smaller countries tend to be a little happier because there is a stronger sense of collectivism and then you also have the aesthetic qualities of a country," White said.

"We were surprised to see countries in Asia scoring so low, with China 82nd, Japan 90th, and India 125th. These are countries that are thought as having a strong sense of collective identity which other researchers have associated with well-being."

Power corrupt people, there can be kindly, lovely, charming, peace full or calm lands, countries and states, but i think the peace as be never existed, never in no were, sea is full of dead, animals, corals, plants, kill daily to live, grow and eat. There are calm places full of natural disasters, or with fauna or flora able to kill humans, in Oceania is concentrated a big amount of death full and poisonous creatures, Switzerland is cold usually.... in places were cold weather is at longer time of the year people is more pacific, and if the countries are not a 3rd world, there is much less violence, usually wen culture is rich and smart, people is less aggressive. So, threes difficulty to decide were peace is living, there are really good islands to live, but the natural disasters are a living nightmare......
