Czech Republic> Country Facts: with NationMaster and the Rough Trio

Here are some somewhat interesting stats about the Czech Republic. I have been living here since Jan 1 so I figured it should be the first country I feature in my 193 part series, Country Facts: with NationMaster and the Rough Trio. Please keep in mind most of these statistics don’t include all countries in the world and are subjective and flawed like any other statistics. There is also a good chance I am making half this shit up:

CR has by far the most amount of embezzlements per capita. Not sure exactly how they define that, but Czech people do seem to be generally sneaky and up to no good.
In the CR 98% of 17 year olds are in secondary education, which is the highest proportion in the world. Shockingly the US only has 79% of students in school. Yikes and that makes total sense at the same time. Yikes again, but way to go Czechs!

In CR 93% of students age 9 have a calculator, more than any other country in the world. Maybe this has something to with all the embezzling they do.

The CR also has the highest percentage of students from households with more than 25 books.

The CR has the highest percentage of public expenditure on health as a % of total expenditure on health. 91.4%. Maybe I should take care of my knee while I am here. The US, at 44.9%, is tied for Mexico as the lowest percentage. Yup.

CR has the third highest average number of births for every 1,000 girls aged 15 to 19. There are 46 children born to every 1000 teenage girls. Who’s #1? The USA of course with 64 per 1000. Good times! My friend Gus may be responsible for a couple of those.
