1. Belarus
Alcohol consumption per capita: 17.5
Current status: decreasing (13.94 in 2014)
As expected, the number one on our list of top drinking countries with the highest alcoholism rates in the world is yet another Eastern European country. As much as 2 percent of the country is diagnosed as alcoholic. Some of the measures taken by the government lately were rising drinking age from 18 to 21 and prohibition of selling alcohol during the specific hour.
