I find it interesting that Tajikistan is on the list and none of the other "stans" around it. Just looked it up and was surprised to see that a number of the others are actually well below even the world average elevation, while Tajikistan is the highest at almost 3200m. But Kyrgyzstan is only 200m lower average elevation and is north of Tajikistan but doesn't make the list.

Actually, now looking at the source data, if the figures above are (give or take) the midpoint between the high and low shown in the source table, Kyrgyzstan should make the list at 60.6 degress F.

I assumed New Zealand was the coldest country in the world in July, and I want to know how we let Chile beat us. Is it because of their name?

Well, if the weather continues behaving like this year, Chile will be out of #1 soon. In La Serena last autumn was really like summer and in the few weeks we have been in winter so far we had two of the hottest days I remember in my 22 years living here.

Maybe. But it sounds like you are disregarding the reality that many, many places are experiencing warming trends that are completely out of character. Somebody should really look into this.

New Zealand's general latitude puts it more or less in the middle of Chile, and much of Chile is very high altitude.

Well you have to consider Tierra de fuego and I mean it can get very windy and very cold in Santiago or at least that my father told me when he went some years ago, and they have a region that it is literally called Región de Magallanes y de la Antártica Chilena I mean antartic? Like that is what I think is for

It's not really funny at all when over 90% of the world's population lives in the northern hemisphere. So really it's just logic.

It has nothing to do really with population. Iceland isn't exactly the most populated country in the world.

Although I suppose it helps that there are more countries overall in the northern hemisphere.
