Perhaps, it’s difficult to argue that it’s better to live in a rich country than in a poor one. As of 2024 year data, the basic indicator of the economic development - GDP by purchasing power parity per capita - was:

● In Saudi Arabia - 61 thousand dollars,

● In CAR - 1,26 thousand dollars.

Thus, according to the gross production per one person, Saudi Arabia leaves CAR behind by %.

To estimate the population law-abidingness and law enforcement activity, let’s pay attention to the statics of premeditated murders and to the data about the number of Saudis and Central Africans, being imprisoned.

Yearly out of 100 thousand people, murders kill:

● in Saudi Arabia - 0.80 people;

● in CAR - 19.76 people

As of 2023 year, in prisons and criminal camps the number of inmates is:

● in Saudi Arabia - 68.1 thousand, or 207 prisoners per 100,000 people;

● in CAR - 764, or 16 prisoners per 100,000 people

Where do people get sick less and live longer?     up↑

The life quality is greatly defined by how long the people live. According to the latest data, the life expectancy is:

According to the data of the World Health Organization (WHO), the spread of HIV-infections is:

● in Saudi Arabia - 11000 of the infected (0.03% of population)

● in CAR - 120000 of the infected (2.09% of population)

The number of people infected by tuberculosis is:

● in Saudi Arabia - 3400 people (10 per 100,000 people);

● in CAR - 26000 people (540 per 100,000 people)

The cancer situation is the following:

● in Saudi Arabia per 100 000 people yearly one finds 96.4 new cases of the disease and registers 51.3 lethal cases;

● in CAR per 100k people every year one fixes 100.4 of newly infected people and 76.8 lethal cases from cancer.

We should not judge about the quality of medicine only by the number of cancer cases, we should look at the ratio between the number of new cases and the number of cancer deaths (the lower it is, the higher the rate of the cured ones is; consequently, the better the health care system works). In the countries under consideration, we see the following ratio between the newly-infected and the dead:

● in Saudi Arabia - ;

● in CAR -

Where do people drink less?     up↑

It’s considered that It’s more comfortable to live in that country where people are less exposed to bad habits. The following WHO data show that the situation with the alcohol consumption (pure alcohol) runs as this:

● in CAR - 2.4 liters per every person older 15 years old

Where do people have more reasons to be satisfied with their lives?     up↑

Perhaps, it’s very difficult to make up an indicator, with the help of which one can define how much the people of this or that country are satisfied by their lives. Nevertheless, there have been a couple of researches.

There is an overall index, is used by UNO - Human Development Index (HDI). This index considers various reasons why citizens feel comfortable. According to 2022 data, HDI in Saudi Arabia is 0.875; in CAR - 0.404.

***

To indirectly evaluate how much the people are satisfied with their lives, one can consider the number of suicides. It comes logically that the better the lives of the people are arranged, the fewer reasons for the suicides there are. In the countries under consideration, per 100 000 people there are:

● in Saudi Arabia - 5,4 suicides (7,8 among men and 1,9 among women) ;

● in CAR - 23,0 suicides (39,6 among men and 9,3 among women)
