Overview

Out of 72 countries, Ukraine sits at #36 — #36 Most Cooked. Three departments are doing the heavy lifting here: political institutions (political polarization beats 46% of the field, just not in a good way), public health policy (life expectancy, 82nd percentile), and housing policy bringing up the rear. Different agencies, same energy.

Ukraine scores 27 out of 100 — exactly the global median (27). Where the system is holding up: billionaires hoarded (5 billionaires) — better than 67% of countries tracked. None of this is really about Ukraine specifically — it's about what's propping up the political institutions numbers underneath.
