Very interesting facts and figures put together that would actually give the reader a good idea about essential practices and facts from our society.
1- Lebanon has around 350 schools and 32 officially recognized universities with 87.4% literacy rate- 93.1 % male and 82.2% female- (Literacy defined based on those who are above the age of 15 and who can read and write). However, the average national IQ is 82-86 depending on different sources. We are ranked the 52nd nation in average IQ along with Philippines. It is also widely understood that the average intelligence where almost half the population score is between 90 and 110. So you do the math on the percentage of those who are below 80. Check the following link to have an idea about IQ scores by examining its relation to professions. This is the best way to understand the score in my opinion.. (I chose this website but almost all websites that discuss this issue mention very close numbers. Lots of data about this issue are available) http://www.sq.4mg.com/IQ-jobs.htm
2- We are ranked the 40th nation for number of vehicles per capita.
There are 434 cars for every 1000 persons. This includes automobiles, SUVs, Vans and commercial vehicles and exclude motorcycles and other motorized two-wheelers. However, we are ranked 70 for owning personal computers per capita. Our rate is 102.076 per 1000 persons. That says a lot about the level of intellectuality.
3- Examining things superficially in Lebanon, one would say that the standard of living is good. Cars, clothes, nightlife, etc... However, trying to observe carefully, one can notice that most people try to save on the essentials individual needs in order to cover up social auxiliaries. Statistically speaking, we are 113th country in the list of 150 on the quality of life in a study done in 2010. I believe it got worse nowadays. (You can check the quality of life index in 2010).
