 Seems interesting.

Yes, please, where did the data come from, who put it together. "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women. When it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it....While it lies there, it needs no constitution, no law, no court to save it" - Judge Learned Hand, May 1944 | |||

Your OP and your link are both from 2010. Here is the 2017 publication (ie. corruption up to 2016).

Scandinavia looks OK. Looks like the colder the climate, the less corruption. Except for Siberia. הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

As someone who has lived in Alaska, and dealt with several government entities in the Alaska's arctic circle I would vehemently disagree. Some of the corruption that goes on would make Bill Clinton do a double take. Globally, the arctic circle tends to be very small villages with everyone related to everyone. With the exception of Russia, I would suspect that like Alaska the subarctic regions are exponentially less corrupt.
