I'm somewhat curious about the selection of countries here. It mostly looks like developed countries in Europe, plus the US, Canada and Australia, which often get lumped in with that due to their colonial history, and Japan and South Korea, which are similarly well off these days and have close relations with some of the countries previously listed, but Chile is a bit of an outlier. What makes it possible to get data from Chile, but not any other countries in south or central America?

Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

It says "high income countries," which presumably means GDP. On a quick search, I found Uruguay and Guyana are highest per capita but Chile with its larger population and size is far higher in total GDP.
Rather than nearly useless (and often detrimental) GDP, this is the kind of goal setting we need to be prioritizing and tracking in each country (for all age groups). Happiness, health, and achievement trends among a population can be used to verify-- with far less doubt and room for obfuscation by powerful and greedy people-- if governments are doing their job well over time, as data accumulates.

Edit: my bad, I read it wrong
You've read it wrong, that would be Japan
How do you get that from this data? Netherlands is like, absolutely smashing these charts?
