Isn't it funny that the most introverted countries are doing very well economically and MOST of the extroverted countries have lots of poverty and poor economic growth?

I noticed not all versions of personality styles of introversion are the same, and this is especially accurate for personality and temperament styles in extroversion. However, some stereotypes is able to be said. This is necessary to categorize and notice the exact specific events for what is introverted and what is extroverted in people's actions, and in people's lives.

The top 10 most Introverted Countries based on National Temperament and Personality:

Austria
Switzerland
Germany
Denmark
Norway
Netherlands
Singapore
India
Taiwan
Canada


The top 10 most Extroverted Countries:

Dominican Republic
Mexico
Venezuela
Brazil
Spain
Portugal
Philippines
South Africa
Croatia
Costa Rica

Sweden and Finland should be included in the top ten introverted list. Remove Netherlands, India and maybe Canada.

No and yes. Introverted countries focus more on working and making life better for everyone, while extroverted countries focus more on shouting like crazy at bazaars and shooting in the air with Kalashnikovs.

Sorry, but the economic growth of Brazil in the past 5 years was waaaaay higher than that of any of the "introverted" countries.

And countries like Vietnam and Laos are not that extroverted, and are still poor, while Italy is very extroverted, and is a First World nation.

"introverted" and "Southern European" in the same sentence? what you mean?

seriously, Italians can't be called "introverted" in any sense

Most Italians I've met are actually rather shy, reserved, and not very talkative to strangers. Definitely more close to Finns than Indians, that's for sure. And no passionate hand waving either. Nowadays the easiest way to distinguish an Italian and Spaniard abroad is that the Spaniard talks with his hands, the Italian don't.

Well, they are very different of the Italians who come to Fortaleza, then...
