It's a pity they only analyzed developing countries. Would be great to sea how European countries and the USA would be ranked in comparison.

They didnt include EU and US because democracy there is dead and buried.

Even if that was true, there's more to Europe than the EU.

Non EU European countries are actually included mind.

Please entertain me with tales of how democracy in EU is alive and well... Not even going to touch democracy in the US, current presidential campaign speaks for itself...

yet downvoting me won't make that kool aid taste less bitter :)

With vague enough definitions, you can make all sort of statements, without worrying of them being falsified. /sarcasm.
