Thanks for sharing your work with us! As someone has asked, I am also wondering what the variables are and it would be nice if yyou could elaborate a little bit.

Thank you for sharing this work! I'm curious about the overall value of studying things at a between-country level, and the extent to which you think this is an area for more investigation. The governmental apparatus of a country certainly captures some information that may explain human-level metrics, but you may also miss out on other human-level attributes that might not vary across an arbitrary country border, but do vary significantly within a country. Thanks!
