We often think about how happy we are as individuals in a given moment, but rarely look at the bigger picture.
The website MoveHub.com is a resource for people looking to move abroad, and they recently put together a fantastic and eye-opening infographic that measures the happiness levels of every part of the world.
The results are very interesting. The US and Russia rate pretty low on the happiness scale, while a glance at South America paints the exact opposite picture.
It's based on the HPI or "Happy Planet Index" Which MoveHub says puts a focus on living long lives with a "high experience of well-being within the environmental limits of the planet."
A look around this graphic will tell you a lot about how people in different parts of the world view their lives, take a look:
