Nice to see that Sweden and Germany are very far up there and did not loose any ground, despite those "rapefugees" destroying their countries. The US ranking is shocking, I new it would not be very high up there but didn't expect it to be that bad.

It's not only about the insecurity, criminal rates blabla...

It's also about the degree of involvment of countries in conflicts in general... Germany is outsourcing this to UK and France in Europe.
Besides, Germany and Sweden are paradises compare to USA

The US, Syria, Greece and Hungry (sic) experienced the biggest drop in peace.

Didn't look any further into the study because I can't take seriously a report that misspells Hungary.

US has a lower crime rate than both Sweden and France though. Suck on that.

Denmark, Portugal, and Iceland combined are almost the size of a single US metropolitan area, with the population powerhouse Portugal bring more than 2/3 of that to the table.
