Gini coefficient is a measure of income equality. The higher it is, the more unequal income distribution is.

More detail on the measure here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gini_coefficient

In OTL's 20th and 21st century nobody seems to do better at doing social justice to each other than white, cold weather people, like Scandinavians and Canadians. The Russians may be the main exception to this.

With a PoD any time 1800 or later, to give everyone enough running room, here's the challenge, make Scandinavia have the *highest* income inequality (and thus Gini coefficient) rather than the lowest, by 1995.

Bonus points for anybody who does this and can estimate whether Scandinavia's income inequality was relatively low within Europe during earlier eras like the Reformation, Viking Age and Nordic Bronz Age.

in Europe is good enough, per the thread title.

but globally would be something I'd love to see, that would have to be a bold work of art!
