Reposting to avoid the misleading title. The ratio doesn't really mean anything, but I still thought the map was pretty cool.

Stronger does not mean better. It’s just the economics terminology.
I'm aware that currency strength is arbitrary. And that a stronger currency does not mean a stronger economy or more purchasing power.
I'm a bit surprised so few countries have one stronger than the US. Maybe an economist could chime in?
