Objective

When I first set out to create this quiz, there were a number of criteria that i had wanted to accomplish.

  - I wanted a definitive answer, something concrete, a percentage number that I could pin point exactly.

  - I wanted to ask questions that cannot be answered subjectively like “Do you feel happy?”. But to ask objective questions like "Do you have access to electricity?"

​

Problems Encountered

​

 - I soon realized that it is nearly impossible to create a well rounded picture as there was a disproportionate amount of data within the social classes. There were significantly more data on the lower social classes and very little on the higher classes.

 - Different countries' data cannot be directly compared to others, since economies are different, thus the Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) varies from country to country. Additionally, not all countries have the same amount of data to work with. Ex: The US has significantly more data than Viet Nam (my country).

I did it anyways :)

​

I suppose these are the inherent limitations of trying to compare data on a global scale, but I still wanted some type of answer since there is still some data I could work with that included all countries, albeit more on the lower classes.

​

Using the data I had accumulated, I was able to create a framework of questions that takes into account the regional differences between the countries, access to resources, and opportunities.
