The happiest people in the world apparently reside in northern Europe, according to a 156-nation survey published by the United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network.
Denmark, Norway, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Sweden are the world's happiest countries while Rwanda, Burundi, the Central African Republic, Benin and Togo -- all nations in Sub-Saharan Africa -- are the least satisfied with their lives, the report said.
On the list of Africa's Happiest
Countries, Angola came first which was followed by Mauritius, Algeria
and Libya. While our dear country Nigeria came 5th place.
It was gathered that thousands of people were quizzed with questions such as:
“Did you feel well-rested yesterday? Were you treated with respect all
day yesterday? Did you smile or laugh a lot yesterday? Did you learn or
do something interesting yesterday?”
