The World’s Happiest Country? It’s Still This One, 8 Years Running

Finland has once again topped the global happiness rankings, securing the number one spot for the eighth consecutive year. The UN-sponsored World Happiness Report credits the country’s strong social support system, deep connection to nature, and high levels of trust.
