10 Most Peaceful Countries in the World in 2023
Please Note: Following list is created from Least Peaceful to Most Peaceful Countries. So Country who will be at number 1, will be Least Peaceful Country.
The title "Most Peaceful Countries in the World" refers to a list of countries ranked by their level of peacefulness. The Global Peace Index (GPI) is a widely used measure of peacefulness, and the most peaceful countries in the world are typically those with the lowest GPI scores.
The GPI is compiled using 23 indicators, including the level of internal violence, the extent of militarization, and the quality of international relations. These indicators are used to create a composite score for each country, which is then used to rank the countries in terms of their peacefulness.
