Default Track Your Drinking Nationality

http://www.bbc.com/news/health-30500372

I scored Namibia

Quote:
If you drank like this every week, in a year you would consume:

beer 312 pints
wine 104 glasses of wine
spirits 0 shots

Based on these proportions and quantities:
You drink like you're from Namibia, which is the 33rd heaviest-drinking country in the world.
I feel I can step my game up over the next week.

Your drinking habits are unlike the average from any country.

But your closest match on overall consumption alone is Belarus, the heaviest-drinking country in the world.
This week was much higher than average, weekend at my brother in laws haha

Used my numbers from when I drank and big surprise but Belarus, the drunkiest of countries.

And here I was trying to be conservative on my estimate

Now I'm a Kuwaiti. WOO!

I'd drink my face off if I lived in Belarus too.

You drink like you're from the Solomon Islands, which is the 29th lightest-drinking country in the world.

Scored me as Muldova

but then went on to say I am on pace for 37 litres of pure alcohol over the year, which would be ~2X that of Belarus??

no comment, but my drinking is fairly random. So I could do nothing over the next ten days and look light, but then do it up some random week in January.

Portugal

You drink like you're from Portugal, which is the 11th heaviest-drinking country in the world.

I've been having wine and I have a glass per period during flames games...

You drink like you're from Moldova, which is the second heaviest-drinking country in the world.

The average resident of Canada drinks a total of about 10.2 litres of pure alcohol a year, making it the 40th heaviest-drinking country.

You are on course to drink about 29.3 litres of pure alcohol over the year, which is 94% more than the average for men in Canada, and 432% more than the average for women.

If you drank like this every week, in a year you would consume:

beer 0

wine 0

shots 208

You drink like you're from Tajikistan, which is the joint 41st lightest-drinking country in the world.

So in a year you would drink about 184 fewer pints of beer than the average inhabitant, about 107 fewer glasses of wine, and 65 fewer single measures of spirits.

South Africa, which is the 29th heaviest drinking country. I suspect after this coming week, it will become like Russia, which is the 4th heaviest. Not Christmas if you're not pushing your body to the brink of alcoholism and diabetes....

Gabon (31th highest)

I was surprised to see that Canadians drink 50 per cent more ounces of spirits than beers.
