The Quality of Nationality Index was developed by specialists from the University of Groningen and Henley & Partners. It analyzes seven key indicators, including global mobility, number of visa-free countries, and economic opportunities associated with a country's passport. The assessment considers both external and internal factors, such as economic development and stability within the country. This approach helps to identify strengths and weaknesses of various nationalities and allows for comparisons among them.
