	An additional note: The following countries were only featured on the Freedom House Index and were classified there as "free". If they had been on the other 3 indices too, some of these might have ended up on this list as well: Andorra, Antigua & Barbuda, Marshall Islands, Monaco, Nauru, Palau, St. Kitts & Nevis, San Marino. Liechtenstein wasn´t featured on the Democracy Rating Index, got best results on the other three though.

	This is a bit silly. The Freedom House, "assesses the degree of perceived democratic freedoms in each country", but perception and reality are quite different. I guess they aren't rating actual freedoms of the people, though. Otherwise, Switzerland and many others would not make it on here.

	If you factored in Privacy International's ratings the UK certainly wouldn't make it on here. Interesting quiz though.

	Somalia should be on here.

	I managed to get them all... except Canada. Somehow. Oops.

	@phibbyfan: Eventually every possible democracy index comes down to perception, as democracy is not something like a country´s population which could really be quantified. I think, the subjectivity of every such index is the first thing you should be aware of. Especially since our notion of "democracy" or "non-democracy" is bound to a certain cultural background. The understanding might be a different one in other regions of the world.

	Ironic how America, whose citizens brag about how free their country is, doesn't show up, but Mauritius, a country most Americans have never heard of, does.
