There is no scientific evidence to suggest left handed people are smarter than right handed people.

Some studies have indicated a small (and perhaps coincidental) correlation between left-handedness and slightly increased creativity, but this has not been substantiated.

No, there is no scientific evidence to suggest that left-handed people are inherently smarter than right-handed people. Intelligence is a complex trait that is not determined by hand preference.

What are the odds of a left-handed person meeting another left-handed person?

There are plenty of left handed people, so if you are left handed you'll probably meet another left handed person at some point. Approximately 10% of the population of the United States is left-handed. That means that of every encounter between two people, one in ten will include at least on left-handed person. To find out how many will be between two left-handed people, you multiply 10% by 10%, you get 1%, or one in 100, so the odds of a left-handed person meeting another left-handed person are 1 in 100. Your question doesn't specify "meeting for the first time"; encountering someone you already know changes things a little, since left-handedness can run in families. Also, those odds don't include meetings with more than two people, or research into facts such as there being left-handed conventions, or left-handed baseball pitchers tending to know one another. That's probably not a big deal, though, and there may be sports or occupations that favor right-handers, which balance things out.


Which country has the most left handed people in the world?

Probably China or India since they have a billion people. Thus the biggest population times the chance of being left handed (which is roughly equal for each country) will give the largest number there! Actually, contrary to the answer above, people in China are taught to be right-handed even if they prefer their left, so there are absolutely no lefties.
