New Zealand (NZ) must be doing something right. I don't know what it is but it deserves to be noticed more:

1. New Zealand (NZ) scored an equal least corrupt country with Denmark on the 2016 corruption perception index conducted by Transparency International.

2. Child corporal punishment is illegal in NZ.

3. NZ ranked 9th on the 2017 Social Progress Index (see https://www.socialprogressindex.com/?code=NZL)

4. In the 2016 Rio Olympics NZ came third place in term of medals per capita, following Bahamas and Jamaica.

5. Most NZ police don't carry guns.
