Maybe the USA score is affected by the Iraq war, while Mexico has the advantage of not being at war with any country.
I think the USA has quite high homocide rates for a first world country, some cities very high like Washington.I need a foot massageComment

What a COMPLETE WASTE!
Evil, evil Finland at #6 of 121?
Canada at #8 when its on the verge of going nuclear with Denmark over Hans0?*
And speaking of those warmongering Danes (#3), didn't they almost start the "Clash of Civilisations" not to long ago by drawing pics of Mohammad?

Doesn't mean that that can be taken as a factor in calculating which country is most peaceful, does it?Comment

so being peaceful means you can turn a blind eye to the autracities of the world, critique those who do not, and pat yourself on the back for it... nice...Comment

I would imagine that is why Iraq is red, how does that effect the peace of the continental United States?Maybe the USA score is affected by the Iraq war, while Mexico has the advantage of not being at war with any country."The DPRK is still in a state of war with the U.S. It's called a black out." - Che explaining why orbital nightime pictures of NK show few lights.

A gendarmerie (pronounced /ʒɒnˈdɑːmɜːriː/) is a military body charged with police duties among civilian populations. The members of such a body are called gendarmes.Statistical anomaly.

Their metrics are really stupid.Comment

Ratings like these are the reason I don't read The Economist anymore. The guys behind the ranking have essentually taken their 90s-originating prejudices about the different countries, added up some zomg BU****LER-demagogue in the mix, and fudged with the stats included enough to get the results they so much desired.
I wish this would be recognised as meaningless, but I presume this will be yet another Eurocentric penis-waving rating to be added to Wikipedia country comparisons.Comment

The results seem very believable to me. I don't think anybody would be complaining if the US had a higher ranking...Comment
