What are the Most Peaceful Countries?

[QueenOf]

Which countries in the world do you think are the most peaceful and peace-loving?

I think Peaceful is free from conflict and i choose switzerland, Switzerland is a prosperous country and enjoys great relationship with most other countries. Its neutrality underpins this prosperity,Because of the neutrality they’ve been maintaining since long time ago, Switzerland has friendly relationship with almost every country.and i like geographic location surrounding mountains,

As Far as I know, there are countries that is consider to be peaceful but we doesn't really know internally if it is peaceful.
In my own opinion, There are no peaceful countries nowadays maybe it is listed on the survey list that there are peaceful country,
but I do believe there is always an Issue about This "peaceful" word.

I agree with you. Some of the so called peaceful countries are not that peaceful on the inside. Take the case of Bhutan as example. It is widely regarded as the most peaceful country in the world. But this is the same country which ethnically cleansed it's Hindu minority in the 1980s.

Countries with large minorities are seldom peaceful.

Greenland. Low population. Plenty of land. Practically no crime. Then Iceland because It has no standing army. And the only time it's ever gotten involved in war is when it has been attacked.

Plenty of land indeed, it's mostly ice. I would not want to live there. Greenland and Iceland should change names, would fit each other better.

In my opinion, the Antarctic if it can be labeled as a country is the most peaceful in the entire world, I am not sure there is any division in the penguin over there and they don't bicker among themselves about the inequality and justice all the time. Human beings are the cause of all whatever woe befalls the planet.

Then you might just as well include the moon

I think where there are no muslims there is peace.

What are you going to do with all that barren land and glaciers in Greenland? It is not suitable for any sort of agricultural or industrial activity. However, some people predict that as a result of global warming, vegetable farming may be made possible in Greenland in the distant future.

Iceland, New Zealand, Portugal, Austria, and Denmark to be the most peaceful countries.

[Quadast]

Statistics is certainly good, but let's do without statistics. I think that Switzerland is one of the most peaceful countries.

[KroFly]

Which countries in the world do you think are the most peaceful and peace-loving?

In Europe, a lot of countries that are very economically developed and people there are just happy to live, therefore very friendly. This is Switzerland and Denmark, even Portugal. Not that there is a so-called Schengen zone. Of the others, these are island states, where any other person is generally something special.

[Kawasanz]

I chose Iceland. where Iceland was affected by the world economic downturn of late 2008. Its investment banking industry collapsed. Hence the demonstration and a number of people injured. That's also because the coalition government collapsed in January 2009. But Iceland remains peaceful and growing again.for the initiator of the GPI, Steve Killelea, this is a clear indication and example that the peaceful country is more resilient and capable of self-refit.

[Esdanit]

Switzerland comes to my mind. They are a powerful nation, and yet they haven't invaded any third world nation unlike the European Union member countries. Also the calm peaceful island nations in the Pacific, such as Palau, Micronesia and Marshall Islands.

For me, the most peaceful countries are New Zealand and Canada because aside from being in the list of the most peaceful countries in the past few years, they were also the countries that we don't often hear that their country have an issue on what so ever it is. But we did hear that they are a nice and great country to live in because indeed they are the most peaceful countries existing here on earth.

You can include northern scandinavia in that case also. Arctic farming here we come.

I don't know how practical is your idea of Arctic farming. A lot of the land in the Arctic areas are getting wasted as a result of the thawing due to global warming. As the temperatures rise even further, most of the permafrost will melt, resulting in vast swamplands where no farming can be practiced. Converting these regions to farmland will require huge investment.

Swamplands can be drained, sure it will cost a lot. If other farmproducing areas are put to dust then arctic farming might be more profitable.

My country (Guyana) is not a very peaceful nation. In fact, there are very few peaceful nations in the Latin American region. I would suggest Uruguay and Chile, but even these nations are not entirely peaceful.

France ...
Yes , it's a joke

[godzillarekt007]

Hmm lets see dont know about peaceful 100% but in my eyes countries that are not trying to get into wars actively are (in no particular order) :

1) Canada
2) Switzerland
3) Denmark
4) Finland
5) Sweden

#5 in the list definitely don't belong there. Sweden has replaced South Africa as the rape capital of the world many years ago. The Somali, Afghan and other Muslim immigrants have turned cities such as Malmo as no go zones for the native Swedes. Unfortunately, the neighboring Finland is also slowly moving in the direction of Sweden.

Ireland is the most peaceful country in the world

Agree very true and in Switzerland too the same thing is going to happen. Was a very safe place but things have started to change and unfortunately not for the better. Cause of this has been a flood of various other cultures which see things differently and do not adapt to the rules and culture that we have.... Oh well lets see what happens.
