According to research by World of Card Games published in Forbes, Switzerland was named the smartest country in the world with a score of 92.02 out of 100.<\/span><\/p>\n

The ranking is based on criteria such as average IQ (99.24), number of Nobel Prize nominations (1,099) and level of education (40% with a bachelor’s degree, 18% with a master’s).<\/span><\/p>\n

The United Kingdom and the United States complete the podium, with the latter boasting the largest number of Nobel-nominated universities (256).<\/span><\/p>\n

The Netherlands and Finland stand out for IQ, while Germany surprises with a lower score for education despite its historically high academic level. The study emphasises that intelligence is not limited to academic parameters, but also involves culture, freedom of thought and opportunity.<\/span><\/p>\n
