Finland has topped the list of countries where mothers enjoy the best conditions in the world,while the US, (where most Africans run to) is ranked 30th.

According to an international NGO 'Save the Children's 2013 Mothers' Index,Finland ranked as the best place in the world to be a mother and Democratic Republic of the Congo as the toughest place.

The mothers' well-being was assessed under five indexes, including maternal health, child mortality, education, working income and political status.

The index ranked countries according to 5 indicators of a mother's well-being: 

1. Maternal health (the risk of maternal mortality); 

2. children's well-being (the mortality rate of children under five); 

3. Education (number of years of formal schooling a woman receives)

4. Economic status (gross national income per capita); and

5. Political status (the participation of women in national government).
