COMMENTARY

@Tony Vincent: I could be wrong, but I think that the reason why African countries aren't listed on this list is because those countries don't report the cause of death when they report statistics to the World Health Organization.

I would strongly caution anyone about jumping to conclusions based on a lack of data.

It's interesting that Africa with the lowest standard of living in most of their countries is only featured in no 79(Egypt). The abundance of basic necessities like food and shelter (Picking fruit off a tree and sleeping under it) may be less stressfull than in a cold industrialised enviornment.
