Small mistake and the bomb will explode. Isn't that amazing? Try one in your house. Just a home made bombs. If you succeed then, you can level your minds to them. If you do not succeed...

India rules! Yala! Yala!
All scientific discoveries taking place now were done long ago in ancient India
Round earth, the number zero, laws of geometry, space time (most important), theories about how everything began,
The frequency generated by the planets of the solar system together produce the sound "om"(nasa said this)
But the problem was that indians never had unity and everyone took advantage of it. Then the whole caste system and stupid superstitions spoilt everything

Although, India is claiming for being intelligent because of their previous achievements, which is by far, not acknowledge by other people... Some stolen stuff... Still, Japan is very undeniable country with lots of very intelligent people. It's either arts, music, science, martial arts, economy... Almost all of it. Name it, they have it.

Only Edo city (current Tokyo) and London, more than one million citizens lived safely before 1800.
Only Edo city, there were a perfectly separated system between water supply and sewer equipment before 1800. That's why no plague was threat for Edo civilians.

Yes, Pakistan is the most intelligent country. Look at ISI one of the best intelligence agencies. Muslims were the ones who brought order, and renewed ideas of classical Greek, and Roman thinking. Without us, none of this would have been brought to light. In Baghdad, we had the House of Wisdom, One of the largest libraries of knowledge in the world. Sadly destroyed by Mongols, when Baghdad was sacked. We were the ones to develop Andalusia,(Hispania, Spain). All the way from the shores of the Iberian Peninsula to the Islands of Oceania we spread our knowledge and these nations prospered. We were the ones who brought Europe out of the Dark Ages. We created Universities, Hospitals, Surgeries, etc. Without us and our discoveries. The world would have been a few hundred years behind.
Yap! I agree. They are the most intelligent people; especially in business. They always use 5-6 to gain more money if you are loaning some money on them. They can even sale some pirated DVD movies in much more affordable price. I use to buy some porn movies on them. It's really a high quality. They can even fix your cellphone on the spot without even having enough idea how to fix it. Very resourceful. No offense, people. Not very rich country but, very intelligent people.
Pakistanis are great. They are talented, good looking and intelligent. The are good in sports, education etc. Filthy countries like the US, India, UK say that Pakistan are supporting terrorists but actually they are supporting them. I as an German say that Pakistan is very nice, talented and friendly. Long live Pakistan. They are the country who have contributed the largest against global terrorism.

Why are they smart...because they don't spend money on research and development. They steal it from the most intelligent people on earth. That would be the USA? China is good at making fireworks. That's it.

America has more geniuses than Singapore has people! Say goodbye to all the other small countries on this list. Countries are very often ranked based on their average intelligence with out regard to variation among ethnic groups. The United States taken as a whole has a high, but not world beating IQ. Drill down to various ethnic groups and you find the intelligence of those groups is much higher than the American average. The average for the dominant group is as high as any other group in the world. Add to that the fact that the smartest people in the world try to immigrate to America, and you have a very large sub-group of intelligent people. The intelligence data we have for China records information for only a few of the big urban area. Extrapolating that intelligence to the whole country is not valid. With hundreds of millions rural Chinese still living at ...more
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
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!

Sri Lanka, officially the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka and known from the beginning of British colonial rule until 1972 as Ceylon, is an island country in South Asia near south-east India. Sri Lankans claim to have the best brains in the world from historical days. It's earliest human remains dates back to about 35000 years. Sri Lankans were the people who first used symbolical characters in the world. The great King Ravana was the first creator of space travelling machine called 'Dandumonara' which has evidence in 'Ramayanaya' written by an Indian. The pre-historical evidence shows how creative these people were and what brilliant technology they possessed in agriculture and construction, some of which are not even able to solve in this so called technological era. However, after Portugese, Dutch and especially British invaded this beautiful country, they destroyed the knowledge and power of the Sri Lankans and built markets for their junk. If you ask how come they invade such a strong country, the answer is, simply they outnumbered this small population.
Sri lankans are a nation who cares without boundaries. Nowhere in the world you'll find such a nation which is so balanced. They are hospitable (very much mistaken as loyal to white skin), they are kind, they trust others (You can get may things done just for the word of mouth), They find a workaround for almost any problem, Almost anyone can understand English, Very high in education level, they very well can say come and see. So come and see if you really want to know without just commenting by knowing couple of people.
Sri Lankans are the people who introduced the spectacles, first Hospitals, Surgery system, First air craft (Dandu Monara) which fueled by mercury, They had good Irrigational technology since the ancient era.
200+ Sri lankan scientists work in Nasa. How dare you tell we are only smart in cooking?

Australians get as much work done as the US despite having a population fourteen times smaller.
Australia is very good at staying out of arguments and minding their own business.
