There are a total of 23 indicators used to compile this list. These indicators are divided into three different categories: militarization, security and protection, and national and international conflict.
The 2018 study was recently published and shows the most peaceful countries in the world. At the top of this list is Iceland. This is not a surprise, since this nation has taken the first place for 10 years in a row. The characteristics that stand out in this country that make it the most peaceful in the world are the low crime rates and the “nonexistent” tension between the economic classes.
which has remained among the four most peaceful nations for the past 10 years.
