nigeria with Africa, although 1/2 Muslim
French Poly, martinique, and Guinea both w/ french HDI numbers (only 6 from each, so negligible)
overseas suzerainties/incorporated territories use mother country's stats (french above, netherlands antilles and aruba, etc)
for reasons I'm unaware of, Serbia isn't included in the HDI. I calculated it on my own using CIA factbook figures and get .842. Instead of using 2/3 the literacy rate and 1/3 the combined gross enrollment ratio, I just used the former in full.
calculated on own for afghanistan, iraq, somalia, liberia, north Korea, Monaco, Macau, Kiribati, nauru, palau
used most recent, but dated, data for montenegro, kiribati, Nauru b/c cia information was incomplete
included Israel w/ Europe. Unique country, but seems European designation more accurate than Islamic or Asian.
China's estimated IQ of 105 is used for Macau
Used Serbia's IQ estimate for Montenegro
Used Papua New Guinea's estimated IQ for Nauru
Palau's estimate is made by giving 4/5s weight to PNG's 83 and 1/5 to China's 105, resulting in 87
Western Sahara's estimated IQ comes from averaging Morocco's and Mauritania's
