As they mention in the end of the article - most Danes think they're in the best possible place in the world and have the best life you can get. I guess that is being happy? Surely you can argue whether it's factually true - but if you think you are happy - aren't you? :-)

a large number of Americans seem to think the same. It's easy to seem the best if you keep your views parochial enough.

Or have some experience of the world outside the U.S. I think I live in the best possible place in the world. I don't begrudge Danes or Swedes for thinking the same. It's all heaven compared to Bangladesh.
