New Zealand was rated the 2nd most peaceful nation, while Chile was rated 16. Chile scored the highest rating amongst countries of the South American continent.

The Global Peace Index is composed of 24 indicators, ranging from a nation’s level of military expenditure to its relations with neighboring countries and the level of respect for human rights. The index has been tested against a range of potential “drivers” or determinants of peace—including levels of democracy and transparency, education and material wellbeing.
