The following definition of a developed country is used:

For the US, this source will be used:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_school_shootings_in_the_United_States_(2000%E2%80%93present) For other countries, the same inclusion criteria will be used.

I will simply divide the number of fatalities by the total population (335M for the US).

I think this question isn't well chosen. Due to its design it will emphasize individual incidents in small countries. For a more accurate result, I think one should consider a longer time-frame.

For instance, while there hardly ever passes a year without a school shooting in the US (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_school_shootings_in_the_United_States_(2000%E2%80%93present) ) , there were 5 school shootings in Austria in the last 50 years (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_school_shootings_in_Europe) - one of which happened this year.

I don't think the US can surpass Sweden this year

It's equivalent to 160 casualties in the US, around 3x the highest from any of the previous years.

10 killed apparently, twice the initial report

Very strange that Israel is not classified as a developed country. Taiwan is also committed but of course it's the UN so they don't recognize Taiwan.

@nathanwei Maybe they only classify countries, and not zionist entities

...(don't hate, joking, I like Israel very much!)

For reference Finland had about 5.64 mil people end of 2024

Thanks for the mention. Torille, as we say in Finland.
