List of countries by life expectancy

• Japan may have the highest life expectancy (recently, hundreds of unrecorded deaths have been discovered, and these may have skewed statistical analysis)
• Every country in Western Europe has high life expectancy
• USA and Canada have high life expectancy

• The lowest life expectancies are found in the African continent

Generally (but probably not always) the more a developed country is, the higher the life expectancy, and vice versa, the less developed countries have a low life expectancy.
