The influences assessed will include the social, economic and political conditions of the country, which will prove most significant when considering their effect on the happiness and standard of living of people residing in a country.

Furthermore, the social factor of a nation and the way its citizens live affect the standard of living of the people of a country. These factors include multiple aspects of social welfare such as education, health, happiness, and crime rates that ultimately affect the standard of living of people residing in a given region.

Finally, in demonstrating the social and economic norms that affect citizens' living standards, political norms have also played an important role. This was shown in Figure 3.1 with government influence and citizen well-being. This was crucial because the standard deviations between countries were low and showed the fact that the correlation between political influence and citizen well-being was strong. Finally, HDI and happiness show a moderate correlation with each other. In total, with the statistical arguments provided, it is demonstrated that the three social, economic and political factors have a moderate effect on the standard of living of the citizens of a country..
