The passport to have if you want to avoid complicated visa requirements is a British, Finnish or Swedish one. These passports gives the right to admission into 173 countries without visa or with a simplified visa at arrival according to the British consulting bureau Movehub. Second place is passports from Denmark, Luxembourg, Germany and USA with 172 countries. The passport that gives the least amount of freedom of movement is the Afghan, that gives the right to admission without visa or simplified visa into 28 countries.
However, the US passport is only marginally behind the top 3 - by 1 country!

I'm sure Canadians are likely to go home too.
The UK appearance at the top of the list is probably a nice conjunction of EU membership and commonwealth membership (brought about by a history of widespread colonialism.)
Hurrah! Quoting works now!

It's about trade/diplomatic relations, lots of tit-for-tat treaties.
