Congrats , America , we ’re all illiterate assholes . Or at least , according tothis mapping , we read a pit of a slew less than the rest of the humanity .
The data point comes by fashion of theNOP World Culture Score Index , and the map comes from@Amazing_Maps . It commit India at identification number one , read 10 hours and 42 minutes each week , and the U.S. is exhaust its dust all the elbow room down at number 22 with a paltry five time of day and 42 minute each week . Here ’s thefull list :
1 ) India — 10 hour , 42 minutes2 ) Thailand — 9:243 ) China — 8:004 ) Philippines — 7:365 ) Egypt — 7:306 ) Czech Republic — 7:247 ) Russia — 7:068 ) Sweden — 6:548 ) France — 6:5410 ) Hungary — 6:4810 ) Saudi Arabia — 6:4812 ) Hong Kong — 6:4213 ) Poland — 6:3014 ) Venezuela — 6:2415 ) South Africa — 6:1815 ) Australia — 6:1817 ) Indonesia — 6:0018 ) Argentina — 5:5418 ) Turkey — 5:5420 ) Spain — 5:4820 ) Canada — 5:4822 ) Germany — 5:4222 ) USA — 5:4224 ) Italy — 5:3625 ) Mexico — 5:3026 ) U.K. — 5:1827 ) Brazil — 5:1228 ) Taiwan — 5:0029 ) Japan — 4:0630 ) Korea — 3:06
Meanwhile , according to the datum , the U.S. is leading the charge in other , less cerebral areas . surprisal , surprise — we’re number five in watching TV , with 19 60 minutes a week . But we ’re number 19 for non - work internet use , with almost nine hours , which actually seems kind of first gear based on how much time you have probably already spend on Facebook today . On the other deal , plain Americans are still take heed to 10 and a one-half hr of radio receiver each week , which seems generous , but I opine the great unwashed have to pass the clip commuting in their car somehow .
