The following figures and facts are what I would term as Israel's contributions towards the modern world. Many of these facts were attained from various websites such as Nation master, Wikipedia, Encyclopedia, Israel's Tourism Ministry and other major sources. See the below figures as what India has compared to the rest of the world in Ranking. The facts are ordered by ranks for your viewing pleasure.

All credits go towards their respective sources. Hopefully you can see how many great things Israel has or done when compared to the rest of the world. This list is a very short list of only rankings, other accomplishments by Israel are not written due to the large number of such data and the fact that it would take me forever to record all the accomplishments of Israel from "A to Z." However, I hope this has been helpful and thank you for reading this.

*Please keep in mind that I have NOT included Palestinian achievements with Israel due to political and statehood ramifications. *
