There’s some infographic on the design website fastcodesign.com listing the life expectance in almost every country of the world.
Where we are born has a lot to do with how old we will be when we die. Pointing out that “life expectancy is a synthetic indicator of the living conditions, health, education, and other social dimensions of a country or territory,” Duhalde chose to organize his visualization geographically, stacking the average life expectancy of countries on each continent in descending order in clusters based on landmasses.
According to that inforgraphic, if you are born in Lebanon in 2013, then your life expectancy is 75 years. That’s less than Jordan, Bahrain, Qatar, and Kuwait, and better than Oman, KSA, and Gaza Strip.
On the other hand, the best continent to be born in is Europe where most of the countries have a life expectancy higher than 80 years, with Monaco also having the highest life expectancy of 90 years.
