When it comes to education, low crime, healthiness, happiness, equality, and democratic quality. The US struggles to even go top 10.

Offering affordable universal healthcare is kind of a must if you want to be considered one of the best countries on earth, sorry 'Murica.
The NL is kinda random in that trinity, but I'll take it.

First of all, I'm not hating on the US by any means  (as some people have claimed above). Just look it up on Google for the full list and see for yourself  Maybe you Americans will learn a thing or two about the outside world

When it comes to HDI the current trinity is Norway, Australia and Switzerland.
When it comes to education, Australia, New Zealand and Norway are the trinity.
Denmark, Australia and Iceland are the happiest countries in the world.
Among countries that are leading in other metrics, Iceland, Sweden, and Switzerland have also the lowest crime rates.
When all things are factored in the trinity would be:
1. Denmark
2. Australia
3. Norway
People do too much downplaying the US. It's actually inside the top 10 in most world rankings.

The US may be dangerous and stupid, but it is still the QUEEN

I don't think this thread is about money or power as much as quality. More like "which pop girl is the most talented/creative".
China has a higher overall GDP than 'Murica and obliterates 'Murica nowadays. Does that mean China is the #1 country in the world?
