Several Nordic nations are placed in the top 20 nations, with Norway being one of them. This is because the Norwegian government makes great efforts to improve the social support within the country and general wellbeing of its people. Because of the precautions they take, the nation enjoys a fairly healthy life expectancy. For instance, parents are entitled to 12 months of paid parental leave following the birth of their child; this enables families to forge greater and more sentimental relationships. Furthermore, corruption is minimal in the nation. Everyone under the age of 16 and pregnant or nursing mothers are provided with free medical treatment . Despite the relatively high tax rate in Norway, the majority of the money raised is used to fund public services like healthcare and education etc.
