@comfi1 I bet some community in some part of Africa is happier than folks in scandinavian countries. People who have been in Nordic countries report that people are quite the miserable sorts actually.

@littlepuppywantanewlife extremely reserved people. Speech taboos everywhere. Very "woke" countries. A running joke is that the no 1 fear of a Swedish person is another person actually talking to him/her. There is a lot of loneliness in those countries
