Top 10 Countries With the Most Intelligent People

The first discoverers of the laws of algebra, geometry, calculus, the binary number system. The first people to successfully carry out cataract surgery, and plastic surgery. The highest paid ethnic group in the United States. Among the smartest employees (and employers) in the booming information technology industry. The only nation that was able to resist British occupation and achieve independence. Despite a relatively high amount of poverty due to a large population, over 600 million people live above the poverty line. The first creators of chess. The land of the Kama Sutra. Most Indians speak three or more languages, depending on their state and class. A country which actively undertakes cutting edge space reasearch. The country with the largest and most widespread film industry in the world. The creators of the best tasting (and some of the healthiest) food in the world.

Indians are the most civilized persona! It was Indians that originally found aeroplane, radio And many other technologies! But the British took their whole idea away and created the same things that Indians first created and they got the patent for it! We need not write wright brothers as the inventors of aeroplane and Marconi as the inventors of radio! Let the world know the TRUTH! INDIANS KNEW TECHNOLOGY BEFORE ANYONE ELSE BUT THEY DID NOT REVEAL IT THAT EASILY because THEY KNEW THAT TECHNOLOGY WOULD BECOME A BANE SOMEDAY, like how we sit and watch unwanted things in television and play games for hours! OBVIOUSLY INDIANS ARE THE MOST INTELLIGENT!

No one could be as challenging as Indians, we have best brains in the entire race, we are the originator of Science, Maths, Languages, teaching, preaching, GOD, agriculture, love and have always managed to keep pace with world with our brilliance.

Bharat mata ki jai india is the great

The smartest people that I have ever met, they know how to make nice things.

For me Japanese is the smartest people in the world and if you can imagine how Japanese can create a lot of modern technology and innovation? That is because they had a highest level of education system.

Indeed being an indian I too fell japan is GOOD.

Good country

How can even India be number 1 while Germany number 10? Germany portrays the word "advanced" and "higly-technological"..have you seen the architectural buildings of Frankfurt before even putting Germany into this rank? Albert Einstein, one of the most intellectual-thinking scientists the history ever known is proved the us, Germans are the most advanced and intellectual people.

Germany has may people famous for creating and advancing life in its way of living. They may be known as american because they went there to teach and show their ways, but they all spoke German and are German.

"All the "greats" were German."

The smartest white countRy

Yeah singapore is the best

Our education system is one of the top

Has the highest average IQ

I'm American, and I think my IQ score of 144 is much higher than a lot of other Americans. A lot of people in the United States of America are fat. I am not one of those people, I am quite skinny and am trying to GAIN weight. That's very rare to hear from someone in the United States of America. In the United States of America, kids get C's and/or D's. Very rarely do you hear an American kid is getting straight A's every year. Kids from the United States of America just go home, ignore homework, play video games on their gaming systems, and lay on the couch watching television, until it is time for them to sleep. Kids in the United States of America don't pay attention in school, and fail lots of things. Kids and even ADULTS hardly understand politics in the United States of America. Let's get away from the kids subject. Ever since all of the toys in the United States of America were made safe, the dumb person percentage went up very high. This is because in the older days, when I ...more

Saying American people are smart, is like asking someone "Can you stop having brain cancer? " - Fuziion

3rd place?! Sorry but Americans are not that intelligent. They boat about NASA not knowing majority of NASA consist of people from other countries. Almost all the scientific achievements are accomplished by foreigners. Don't believe? Go and research!

Don't get me wrong - China, Japan, and India has some truly brilliant people. But this is America.

While as a country we are declining in intelligence (thanks to these useless public schools), we are America. The country that nearly every other country tried to copy in some way to better their own system. The country that has people wishing they could come here. (*Glares at Mexico*)

We have created better versions of nearly every other invention ever created. Guns? You betcha. Colt 1911 model created the modern standard for handguns. Rockets/Space-fare? We made it to the moon first. Personal Technology? Yup. Anyone who uses an iPhone knows I'm right. This is MURIKA, the greatest experiment of Mankind!

Sadly, Obama may change that.

Look at their politicians, bankers and financiers... the smartest by far!

And the most jealous country award goes to Russia

Since Russia is quite competitive, people take education very seriously. Having bad grades in school or uni is a no-go!

Lmao no. Indians are like super smart

Humm. russia is too good good good good

It has the best teaching from government itself.

Although South Korea's and Finland's education systems are polar opposites, one or the other usually gets ranked at least in the top 10's and sometimes in the number 1 spot!

They are the best

I think its finland

Sri Lankans are very intelligent. Sri lanka are very different..

The are intelligent say in history book. Never know it.

They have power and courage, But people joules on their neighborhood also.

This is county with so much untapped potential

Yeah, but the very nation it conquered got independence including India ( by every, I mean that no every but a few have not got I think)

2 words. William Shakespeare. Enough said.

In my opinion they are not the smartest race.

Yeah... I like Charles Darwin and the evolution theory, but for me Germany is better with all the philosofhers and ideals (sry) - Snowd

Us Australians are really intelligent - micahisthebest

We aussies are smart and handsome/betiful

We invented wi-fi, the dual flush toilet, the aborigines invented the boomerang 10k years ago and we have Terence Tao, the smartest person alive currently (IQ 230). - coolguy101

Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi Oi Oi we are the most intelligent

Taiwan is really good at farting

It has the smartest people in the world

Boo

The Compact Disk, the DVD, Blue Ray, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi. All invented in The Netherlands!

Home to the most Nobel Lauriets per capita.

Highest average IQ from all western countries, Italy is full of cultural and architectural wonders and the level of the education system is very brilliant. Italy gave birth to many cultural and political doctrines. Not to mention all the great figures that changed the world!

It's just a matter of knowing history and culture to understand why this peninsula has the highest IQ average in the western world. A history full of geniuses in every field. A demanding education system and escellent traditional universities which are continually penalised by the modern rating system which places modernity and facilities above academia and knowledge.

Look any official "Average IQ by Country" chart and you will see that Italians have the highest IQ ratio (102) in the western countries

43 percent of NASA workers are Iranians.

People who gave algebra, algorithm, avecina and many artistic master peaces to the world in past and great number of NASA scientist and best heart and brain surgeons and greatest mathematician of 2013 Maryam Mirzakhani in modern age.

How the hell is sweden a more intelligent than this country. You legit say that 43 percent of NASA workers are Iranians and the founder of ebay is also considered an Iranian.?

Iranians are intelligent. Who founded ebay? An Iranian.

Swiss are the smartest businessmen

There are smart Filipinos, only if the dumbed down media gives more appreciation to scientists, academics, academic contests winners in international competition, and IT people than celebrities.

Philippines is rising its education system and considered as one of the best in Asia. We have a lot of great universities that enhancing the intellectual knowledge of its students.

I am a Filipino and I am a bit smart at the time. But there are some intelligent people out there and there are some dumb people out there, too.

I'm a filipino and I have 158IQ for me filipino is smart technicaly they have big imagination and invention which is underrated by the government. though we don't have lot of history about knowledge about discovery,etc. but in this generation filipino are excelled fast and we learn fast than others. by the way we are other filipino are perfectionist also that they do what they want. we are also hospitable.

They invented lots of useful things: Cinema, cars etc..

A 2015 survey shows that French people have the 2nd highest IQ in the world, this list should be updated correctly.

There is an interesting study from the TIMSS, Pisa (Italy), data by Lynn and Vanhanen showing the IQ average by European countries, can compare with this list.

From someone that live in the country, and sure, the oldest generations made great inventions, I can't deny that.

but this is a mess, our justice is almost non-existant, you can't really count on it when needed, plus, since we get rid of the death sentence, the ones that get condamned for their crimes can make their judgement slower by any methods possible,
sentences could be for 5years, even if the crime could have deserved more.

politicians take randomn decisions, making the life harder for many.

unfortunatelly, even what the ancestors created, couldn't fix the country.

We can master the most difficult situations with clever solutions, fast thinking and practical, Turkish people are very intelligent.

IT IS ONE OF THE POWER FULL COUNTRY LONG YEARS AGO IT CONQUERED China, HALF OF India, ETC

We are not 1st but we have potential to harvest the top countries' population with our leadershipness. We will be the shepherd of the world

Greek people are exceptionally intelligent, their mathematical skills are extraordinary therefore they deserve being in at least the top 20

How can you vote for other countries since greek people started everything? All your discoveries are Based on sciences greeks created in the First place, as well as egyptians and arabes.

It's people are highly educated with great scientific and technological development currently taking place in Polish Institutes.

Many intelligent people come from Poland.

Mathematics, programming and biotechnology are very high in Poland

Sure copernicus was from Poland, but besides from that, the people here are extremley racist and rude. - Fuziion

Many people consider Romania a bad country with stupid people but in reality our doctors and our smart people are leaving Romania because of it's poor condition.But they are still Romanian!

Second language spoke in Microsoft is Romanian

I love romania it is the best only retarded gypsies ruin it for other people.

Romania is very low. Romanian people are too inteligents for most over here.

The Nigeria government is holding back some good talents in Nigeria corrupt and ethnicity is the major problem in that country, Fools and intelligent people living in Nigeria also. Some of them are really natural intelligent. I can't tell you if a country in Africa is really intelligent because Africa is lacking behinds while Europe, USA and Asia is growing everyday technologically, Africa is very far to rank as intelligent people until wonders start happening there like other continents.

We have much intelligence I feel this site although is not accurate because people vote on a position of what they think is the smartest "race" therefore we as Nigerians may be one of the top 5 smartest.

To me have the most intelligent people in the world.

Nigeria has the most intelligent people in the world especially the Igbos(Easterners)The Igbos are very intelligent and should be ranked the best in the world.

Malaysians have always been forced to learn everything and excel at everything as early as 4 years old - to survive the ever-changing education system of Malaysia, one should be an expert in adaptations. Such are Malaysians - while adapting to the changes, one must else be one with the harmonics that is the cultural diversity. It's actually a double-edge sword - one being the capability and the will to identify a definitive trait of oneself, while the other would wreck havoc to one's confidence due to the sheer amount of knowledge that needs to pass through to reach the doors of exploration. In my humble opinion, that's what make Malaysians part of an intellectual community, but also provides an abundant of wisdom hand in hand.

Students in Malaysia school is the most challenging since malaysia has indian, chinese and malay. And me as a malay student most chinese here are smarter

Proud to be malaysian

Norwegians are smarter than Indians. - llykling

Armenia it the best!

The descendant of the phoenicians! They created ships, alphabet and so many things!

Nepalese students are very intelligent and have been performing exceptionally well in academics in many foreign countries. - Lunatic

Nepalese are the most intelligent people in the world after india.
nepalese students don't get any chance of exposing their inventions and knowledge because of poverty and supportless from government.

I think Bangladeshi people are smart in math

With only 3.5 million people (and only partially developed schooling (around big cities education is well developed)) and so many inventions that changed the world (electricity, pens,torpedos, speedometer...) I am convinced that Croats are very intelligent. They only move to other countries (USA, UK, Canada...) to do science and have a normal life becouse, unfortunatelly, Croatia is quite poor.

They are just lazy but smart enough

THEY ARE SO INTELLIGENT �"

TEHY ARE BEAUTIFUL AND SMART ENOUGH TO CONTROL EARTH ❤️🇦🇪

Well I have IQ of 132(i'm 13), And Mainly I really Think that there's a lot more Smarter than me In the country which I'm(Macedonia) And Is also doing quietly well actually. And Due to Its Standards, Very Intelligent People are leaving for High itself demands.

I can say that many smart people that are in this country are leaving due to its High Poverty Levels.. Still when they leave it really hurts me, but still they are considered Macedonians still!
