Based on the misery index, a tally of the countries with the highest inflation and unemployment figures.

A rthur Okun's "misery index" analyzes a country's unemployment and inflation rates to provide a measurable reading of a country's woes. Business Insider crunched figures for 197 countries and territories and came up with the top 25. Twelve of the 25 countries are in Africa, and the rest are mainly in the Middle East and Eastern Europe. Zimbabwe tops the list with 95 percent unemployment and 8.3 percent inflation, which adds up to a whopping 103 percent on the misery index Liberia, comes in at No. 2 with a score of 90.5 percent.
