There also seems to be some level of correlation to physical size of the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There also seems to be some level of correlation to physical size of the country. Tiny and wealthy definitely wins the day, but as you start going down the list you see populous and relatively diverse countries: Canada, New Zealand, Singapore (very diverse, not so large), Australia, Belgium, the UK, and Spain would meet those criteria to me. You could make some of those arguments about some others, depending on what diversity and largeness means. Of course, Hong Kong is very diverse itself but also really tiny (and not exactly a sovereign state). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
