Also, it doesn't seem like the IQ score is properly normalised; 100 should be the mean average, but it doesn't look like that's the case here. Data seems fake.

Edit: Or they could've normalised it based on a US IQ score. There are other issues with the data, though.

I came here thinking that iq stood for something I didn't know. No way this is legit data!

I love how Africa is just the dumbest place in the world. /s

I really call bs on this map.

Why? The average IQ of the US is 100. Subsaharan Africa is 65. Japan is about 110. The map looks accurate to me.

The map looks accurate to me.

Oh, lucky us, we have a resident expert on the subject.
