                                       Anticorruption (http://www.transparency.de/) versus latitude (year 2000)                                       

Regarding corruption, using 2000 data from Transparency International, I plotted anticorruption versus latitude. Actually, my more recent plot of transparency versus wealth shows a much more convincing correlation than transparany versus latitude. But does wealth cause transparency or does transparency cause wealth? Probably neither. I've discovered the Lynn and Vanhanen IQ data for countries. I should make some plots to try to figure out which is more tightly bound, anticorruption and IQ, or anticorruption and wealth.
