1. National I.Q in Descending Order

Four values ​​are given for the national IQ (mean IQ in the country), the 2002 (from IQ and the Wealth of Nations), 2006 (from IQ and Global Inequality), 2012 (from Intelligence, a Unifying Construct for the Social Science), 2023 (The Intelligence of Nations. National IQs. Update 2023). The values ​​of 2023 are the most valid.

They vary little, although the average IQ in East Asia is revised upwards, especially in China (the value of 100 for China in 2002 was an underestimate). The average IQ of Western Europe is slightly revised downwards (Australia, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium), probably because the average IQ is decreasing while the proportion of Afro-Maghrebians, which have a significantly lower IQ than Native Europeans, increases in these countries.

PPP-GNI per capita 2002 indicates the average per capita wage (2002), QHC the human development index, two parameters highly correlated to National IQ. It already appears that national IQ are essentially determined by the proportions of the different races in the different countries (see point 2).

2. Racial Roots of National I.Q

Table 9.8. Race differences in brain site (cc) and intelligence

Race	IQ	Brain Size (cc)
East Asians	106	1416
Europeans	99	1369
Southeast Asians	90	1332
Pacific Islanders	85	1317
North Africans and Middle Easterners	84	1293
Africans	71	1282

The genetic bases of intellectual differences between nations lie in the racial identity of the population. This becomes apparent when nations are categorized by race.

East Asians have a mean I.Q of 105, so nations composed mainly of East Asians have a national average I.Q of 105 with some variations (105 to 108). Not only the nations originally populated by East Asians but also nations where East Asian migrated and are now the majority (case of Singapore)

Europeans follow with an average IQ of 99 and therefore logically average IQs of European nations oscillates around 99 (not only European nations but also nations where Europeans have migrated and are the large majority like Australia (99), the United States (98) or Canada (99). With the increasing number of Afro-Maghrebian populations in Europe and Hispanics in the United States a gradual decline in intelligence and consequently a reduction in development level compared to East Asia is in progres (See Future of the World).

The lower IQ of 92 (range 90 to 94) in Southern Europe is attributable to some gene flow between South Asians (MENA) and Europeans across the Dardanelles Strait and the Aegean and production of an hybrid population in the Balkans whose IQs are intermediate between that of Europeans (99) and that of South Asians (84). An hybrid population is also present in Turkey where the IQ of around 90 is only slightly lower than that of the Balkans.

The South Asians and North Africans (Middle Easterners) have an average I.Q of 84 and so nations composed mainly by this race have a national average I.Q around 84.

Africans in sub-Saharan Africa have an average IQ of 71 and therefore predominantly African nations have a national average IQ of around 71. It is not only nations of the African continent but also nations of the world where Africans are largely the majority, for example Haiti.(71 of average I.Q)

In nations populated by hybrid populations like Latin America, mean I.Q is predictable from the proportion of the different races.

3. Average Salary predicted by National I.Q, Linear Regrestion (Lynn and Vanhanen, 2002)

NATIONAL I.Q (Lynn and Vanhanen, 2002).

Correlation with economic success 0,757 About 75% of the economic variance between countries is explained by the average IQ of the population. 3 elements come down the correlation (which, without them, would be even more important): 1. The degree of economic freedom: countries that have lived (or still live) communism are of course much poorer than the others 2. The quantity of natural resources (eg oil in the Middle East that increases the GDP of these countries) 3. The internal organization of the country: putting the intellectual elite in economic power increases the global wealth of all. GDP = Gross Domestic Product Fitted GDP (FGDP) = GDP per capita predicted from the national I.Q GDP / FGDP = indicates whether the country is doing better or worse than its IQ predicts. A positive figure indicates that the salary is higher than the average I.Q predicts. A negative result indicates that the country could do better given its average I.Q.

4. Exponential Correlation between National I.Q and Average Salary (better relation than the linear regretion)

In a 2006 study (Exponential correlation of I.Q and the wealth of nations, Intelligence, 34, pp291-295), E. Dickerson shows that an exponential correlation is more correct to describe the link between national I.Q and GDP per capita (average salary).

An I.Q gain of 10 points translates into a doubling of the national average salary.
A gain of 5 I.Q point multiplies the average salary by 1.45.

Example: Cameroon has an average Q.I of 70 and a salary of $ 1474.

Ecuador has an average Q.I of 80 and an average salary of $ 3003 (about double)

Turkey has an average Q.I of 90 and an average salary of $ 6422 (about double)

Hong Kong with an average Q.I of 107 has almost 20 points more than Turkey and has a salary of $ 20,763, almost 2.2 = 4 times the average Turkish salary.
