Happiness is the ultimate goal of everyone on this planet. It is a state of mind when one feels satisfaction. It is an experience of joy and fulfilment. When someone is happy his genes, cells, tissues are in a productive condition that provides better organic life to the person. Happiness lowers the panic situation of the brain network and balances our body and mind. Happiness is a state when inspired ideas take birth.
Now the question flashes in mind,

“How anyone can remain happy”.
We experience happiness off and on due to many reasons and situations. But to enjoy it mostly we need an environment where there are fewer chances of those factors that sip our pleasures. Low income, injustice, oppression, corruption, a ban on the expression of thoughts, restrictions on choices, bad law and order situation, substandard education system, lack of entertainment facilities are the causes that pollute the beauty of life. So to get rid of all these worse is the primary wish of everyone here.
Some countries are taking initiatives to root out above evils from their lands to make the lives of people happy. Luxembourg, Austria New Zealand, Sweden, Netherlands, Norway. Iceland, Switzerland, Denmark, and Finland are worth mentioning countries in this regard. Governments here are working actively to achieve high standards of living for their masses.
These governments are working on the concept of a welfare state. This concept bases on the good health, happiness and safety of the people. It is a system where Government takes the responsibility for the needy. It provides free services of education, social care, health care, medical care and care for the old. These governments work on qualitative and quantitative measures for a happy life.
Qualitative
• Safety of life and property
• Food
• Self-reliance
• Access to banking and financial services
• Control and manageable inflation rate
Quantitative
• GDP (Gross domestic product)
• GNP (Gross national product)
• Per capita income
Finland is the country where happiness moves around mostly. It has the best education system in the world. It has beaten South Korea, Singapore and even Japan. Highly trained and outclass professional teachers are there to make a dignified nation.
Denmark is the land of satisfied people. Life expectancy, social support and generosity among the people are at their peak. People here enjoy happiness because of confidence in government, economic haven, freedom and work-life balance. The people here are satisfied and take part in life charms to the fullest.
Switzerland is the place where peace of mind prevails. Direct democracy is the beauty of this country. Common people have directly involved in Government policies and every word of law is the wish of people. Human rights, mutual respect are landmark qualities of this place.

Reasons of happiness
People here are happy because they feel no stress here. Their problems are sensed and a solution is to be provided with maximum efforts. Certainly, there may be some defects as human in the system but most people are provided with supreme ease. High bold pressure, weak muscles and mood disorders rush in society due to stress. Crimes are committed mostly in stress. So the system here tries to reduce stress to make the place worth living.
People enjoy happiness there because of the positive environment available for them. In such an environment they manage their better relationship management. They are always eager to visit their families and friends. Smile exchange at the social level is so common that your feelings about others are always encouraging. Pleasure comes through relations because we are emotionally attached to them.
Another thing that behaviour and social scientists believe that happiness increases the life expectancy rate. If someone lives in a stressed and obsessed environment his days are numbered because he feels life as a burden. On contrary, when you are encircled in a stress-free and pleasing environment, your affair with life boosts. This connection is available in these countries.
The better economic situation always helps to speak you sweet. If necessities are fulfilled then you are lion to face the day. Your body and mind relationship remains balance and nothing disturbs you a lot. Governments here takes an economic balance of the people as the top priority. Policies centre point is to upgrade the life of people so happiness is free to visit there.
Law abidance and less fear also encourage happiness to heal in. In these countries, fear comes at least grade because police and other departments work more on an ideal civic atmosphere.
People in these countries are more productive in their work because of their better inner health. They fight more positively to solve their problems. As a result, their role in national growth is very active. Happiness cultivates the way of creativity. Creativity gives birth to new ideas and innovations.
In short, these countries have conceived the idea that human development is the only key to get better among the nations. They invest much in human beings. Equality, the supremacy of law, tolerance and human rights consciousness are their super beliefs. We cannot buy happiness from the market it needs sincerity and the right direction.
