In brief, the World Happiness Report is a landmark survey of the state of happiness in 149 countries. The report continues to gain global recognition as governments, organizations and civil society increasingly use happiness indicators to inform their policy-making decisions.
The happiness measured scores depends on six factors:

  • Economic production
  • Social support
  • Life expectancy
  • Freedom
  • Absence of corruption
  • Generosity

In this table, you can see the data I worked with, sorted from the happiest to the least happy country.

In this plot, you can see the ranking with each factor’s contribution (hover on the plot for details). (Note: the total score doesn’t results from the bare sum of the single contribution, see Kaggle for details)
