So in Geography today, I found out about something called the Happy Planet Index which is an " index of human well-being and environmental impact that was introduced by the New Economics Foundation (NEF) in July 2006."

I decided to rank the European countries from the 2006 statistics, and made a map out of is.

Basically, the darker the colour, the "happier" a country's people are.


For some reason, Cyprus disappeared from this map. It ranks 7th in the list

Northern Cyprus swallowed Cyprus.

Haitian sounds exactly like French on the first listen.

But when you read it, it looks like this: Mwen pa pale franse. (Sounds like: "Moi pas parler francais")

What Europe would look like if all the ice in the world melted.

This is likely to happen by 7000AD.
