The Most Unhappy Country in 2018
Back in 2018, the title of the world's most miserable nation went to Venezuela. This marked a continuation of a troubling trend, as the country had already claimed the top spot in 2017, 2016, and 2015.
The deep economic and social struggles during this period were largely tied to severe institutional failures, political corruption, and the collapse of the oil-dependent economy under President Nicolás Maduro's administration. Among the most devastating economic indicators was crippling hyperinflation, which rapidly eroded the savings and daily purchasing power of ordinary citizens.
These harsh economic conditions led to widespread scarcity of basic goods, medicine, and food, triggering a massive humanitarian crisis and the displacement of millions of Venezuelans seeking stability abroad.
