A Battle of Wits: Average World IQ


Above are two images taken from Wikipedia showing average IQ around the world. The first (and original image) was put on Wikipedia in June 2006; the second image is from today, and it has been flipping back and forth several times. The IQ of Americans, New Zealanders, and the French has dropped about 30, 30, and 40 points, respectively, and the IQ of Australians has risen by 40 points.

It depends on whether you consider the indigenous population or the population living in there today, including immigrants.

Actually, looking closely at the second pic, it makes no sense (must be a joke).
