  1. New Zealand, Singapore and Japan best european nations πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ

  2. Go by r/Ireland and you’d swear Dublin was on par with Cape Town in terms of crime.

  3. you know there is a war in Europe and the one that does not protect against threat will eventually feed other people’s army

  4. The methodology is a little iffy.

    You got the reasonable stuff, deaths from conflicts, number and duration conflicts. Terrorism etc.

    Then you get a little silly, how much you spend on your military, number of prisoners, number of police, military trade. Heaven forbid you have nuclear weapons, that’s a big no no.

    Iceland is ranked so highly because it is small and effectively outsources it’s military to NATO.

  5. As a Norwegian seeing Norway at 24 make me want to move to our brothers in Denmark. Norway going downhill fast…

  6. This reminds me of the nice guy debate. Are these countries nice because they are too weak to pester anybody or do they have the the capability, but choose not to.

  7. For as much as I complain about Portugal (and there is *a lot* to complain about), I do appreciate that it’s a place where I feel safe. Sure there are rough areas, and it’s not like crime is non-existant, but at least I can say I don’t feel anxious walking around at night, or worry about pickpockets, or think about the possibility of a terrorist attack, or serial killers, or school shooters. It’s nice to have peace of mind in that respect at least.

  8. NOOOOOO! BULGARIA IS NOT IN FIRST PLACE πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ¦πŸ¦πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ¦πŸ¦πŸ¦πŸ¦πŸ¦

  9. No, not USA on the top 10 peace index!!!! But Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ is about few points away from reaching top 10.

  10. We beat Sweden again, yes! So peaceful, so so peaceful! πŸ‡©πŸ‡°πŸ•ŠοΈπŸ’ͺ🏼

  11. Qatar, 21st most peaceful country in the world, just casually finding terrorist groups around the world and sowing chaos and disdain. Lovely

  12. This index sucks. Basically if you sell weapons you are not peaceful, lmao.

  13. Start two world wars (out of two). Rank 5. PR victory if I’ve ever seen one.

  14. Yeah i doubt this list was done with reasonable rules. Like, sure Qatar is peaceful af. Unless you are drinking, gay, a woman, a foreign worker…

  15. i remember when Sweden was atleast top10. I wonder what happened πŸ€”

  16. How tf is my country under countries with death sentance and lashing as punishments?

  17. As a Brit, am I allowed to pull the victim of war card now?

  18. This chart lost all credibility when it ranked Qatar as 21.

  19. The latest shooting rampage with 14 dead in Prague came probably too late for this ranking.

  20. This is getting reposted everywhere, the truth is that Europe and many Asian countries have historically benefited from what is known as Pax Americana
