Britain fourth on ‘good country’ index thanks to science and technology
The British are not very good at taking pride in themselves or their country, so we should celebrate this news that the UK has come fourth in the latest version of something called the good country index. A major factor is its global contribution to science and technology, thanks to the high number of journal exports, Nobel prizes and international publications it has produced.
The index compiles data on 35 indices. The top three nations in the current index are – in order – Sweden, Denmark and The Netherlands. The United States is ranked 21. Where does your country come in the index? You can check it out here.
