Isn't most of the pessimistic discourse around the EU related to trends (and thus projections), though?
GDP growth is stagnant compared to peers. If that trend continues or intensifies, don't you think it will impact the other moment-in-time stats?

Very interesting stats. Your website interface, design is also easy to use.
A question for you.
Did you built it, just for fun to compare EU vs the world or is there some insight that you are trying to share ?
forget to add one stat. Europe is the place where both World War I and World War II started.

Thanks! Both, really. I built it because I kept seeing the same claims repeated — "Europeans are overtaxed for nothing", "Europe has no more free speech", etc. — and I wanted to check them against actual data. Turns out the data overwhelmingly supports Europe on most quality-of-life, safety, and democratic metrics.
The insight I'm trying to share: Europe is significantly stronger than the narrative suggests, especially the narrative that's been dominant in US-centric tech/media circles. Most people I talk to — including Europeans — are surprised by the numbers. I figured if the data is that compelling, it should be easy to access and hard to dismiss.

And who is making the "data" ? Who is funding it ? The EU lol.
You need to be able to read between the lines to see that the EU is free falling, research your own data dont be spoon feed this fake crap that EU is putting out
