DID you know that Australia has the most deadly animals, deadly shark attacks and highest rate of melanoma in the world?
Gotta be proud of that, right?! Umm ...
A new world map created by comic website Doghouse Diaries highlights what each country around the world leads at. And the results are bound to raise a few eyebrows.
The map was based on articles from Wikipedia so may not be the most accurate, but it sure is amusing.
"Most countries lead the world in something," Doghouse Diaries artist Ray Yamartino said. "Sometimes good things, sometimes not so good things, and sometimes funny things. This map shows what each country does best compared to all other countries."
Here are some of the highlights:
Russia: Raspberries and nuclear warheads
Cameroon: Killer lakes
Mongolia: Velociraptor bones
US: Death by lawnmower
Mexico: Getting struck by lightning
South Africa: Ostriches
Finland: Coffee-drinking
Spain: Cocaine use
Canada: Maple syrup and asteroid impacts
New Zealand: Sheep and rugby
Malaysia: Caves
Greenland: Personal space
Ireland: Highest quality of life
Democratic Republic of Congo: Pygmy chimpanzees
Cambodia: Longest alphabet
India: Movies
South Pole: Emperor penguins
Sweden: Atheism
Japan: Robots
