These rankings are based on data from World Bank, the International Air Transport Association, the Institute for Economics and Peace.
Among the 195 nationalities listed in the index, France's quality of nationality on 81.7% is the best in the world, fractionally ahead of Germany. Iceland and Denmark take third and fourth place, respectively.
