The document at hand aims at a thorough search, study and recording of various prosperity indicators (e.g. Gross Domestic Product GDP) used in European and global scale, as well as of the underlying data. The document examines and analyses 21 prosperity indicators (14 economic and 7 social indicators), that were selected by the authors as the most widely accepted and utilised. Moreover, a creative review on the aforementioned indexes is realized, targeting towards recognising and documenting any existing methodological or application gaps. Last but not least, a comparative analysis of trends in modern indicators is also included.
