Could you also please factor in the literal definition of "right wing"? http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/right+wing

I'd get a kick out of American right wingers seeing which countries they have so much in common with.

This is not true. Austria is actually no. 1 and Germany is probably around no. 5. Due to a lingering element of shame over Nazism, people are reluctant to admit to being as right-wing as they actually are.

The political systems in western nations are categorised along a left-right spectrum. Characteristics of right wing politics include:

  • A capitalist economy
  • Liberty has a higher value than equality.
  • Economic liberty is a priority.
  • Government intervention in moral issues.
  • Emphasis on fair processes
  • Individual responsibility

This statistic from the World Values Survey states the percentage of people who described themselves as far-right. Self placement would be influenced by the meaning of the terms political left and right within the context of each country surveyed.
