There are titles that some Europeans won't let go of, and that's a good thing! The United Nations has unveiled its 2026 edition of the World Happiness Report. For the 9th consecutive year, Finland has been named the happiest country in the world. This prestigious title was achieved with a score of 7.764/10. To establish this ranking, experts look at factors including the quality of life assessment made by the residents of the country in question, as well as factors like GDP per capita, average life expectancy, the sense of freedom, generosity, and perceptions of corruption.
