According to the Institute, Iceland is admitted the most peaceful country in the world.

The second place in the ranking belongs to New Zealand, a country with a developed market economy. An important role is played by the fact that New Zealand is located very far from the main hot spots of the world.

The third place among the most conflict-free states was given to Portugal. The country is known for its diversity and traditions, which does not prevent it from being one of the most peaceful countries in the world.

The fourth place in this list goes to Austria. It is a member of the UN and one of the richest countries in the world. The crime rate in Austria is extremely low.

The fifth place among the countries with the most tranquil situation is occupied by Denmark.

Thanks to this, the situation can be kept under control, and the crime rate here is very low.

The sixth place is taken by the Czech Republic with its narrow ancient streets and inexpressible architecture. Experts consider it to be one of the most tranquil countries in Central Europe with a fairly stable economic system.

Seventh place in the ranking goes to Slovenia. Its population is a little under 2 million. There are no serious interethnic conflicts in the country, and the crime rate is one of the most insignificant in the world.
