Iceland

Iceland is #27 on our ranking of richest nations. However, its $25.9 billion GDP, ranked 110th, is not really a great indicator of its riches. With near-perfect standings in water supply and sanitation as well as basic healthcare, where Iceland plays best is its No. 2 ranked SPI. It is also a global leader in the provision of basic knowledge and personal rights, although, with a rating of 61.91 for access to the best education, it falls well short. With its $66,504 annual earnings ranking No. 6 in the globe, Iceland is indeed a leader in average income. That’s enough to surmount its shortage of GDP and obtain a place at the table of the richest nations, combined with a high SPI ranking.

Czech Republic

The Czech Republic has been renowned for cranking out hockey players, and not so much in final products, giving rise to a GDP of $244.1 billion in its No. 48 standings. With its No. 34-ranked monthly pay of $26,962, it is not doing far better. Notwithstanding its reduced GDP as well as wage levels, thanks to its No. 26 SPI, the Czech Republic nevertheless ranks No. 26 on our list. Due to high water and sanitation ratings, basic medical care, and personal rights, the Czech Republic’s SPI is getting a boost. The Czech Republic, like many other Euro countries, is struggling with only 56.14 out of 100 points for access to the best education.
