I think a cold climate tends to make a hardier people. These peoples have subsided in places where the air itself wants to kill you. Content people are found in the cold. Scandinavia, Siberia, northern China...
Perhaps, but the happiest people I've ever met where from Caribbean or Mediterranean islands. Can hardly recall meeting many happy Scandinavians, and I've lived a large chunk of my life in Scandinavian countries.
The one that sticks out in my mind is the one with the guy that bought a motorcycle helmet with fake safety certifications off Amazon and got in a serious accident. I can't find any articles about it, but, IIRC, the lawsuit was decided in favor of Amazon, so maybe it's been scrubbed from the internet.
