Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Five of the world's safest countries for 2025It seems that small, isolated countries are safer than others, according
to the Global Peace Index (GPI), which measures trends in peace, economic
value, and how to develop peaceful societies. Its three domains include the
level of social safety and security, the extent of ongoing domestic and
international conflict, and the degree of militarization. This year, three island
nations, Iceland, Ireland, and New Zealand, and two landlocked mountain
countries, Austria and Switzerland, are found to be at the top of the list,
followed by Singapore. Among the European nations, Iceland is a member of NATO,
but Ireland, Austria, and Switzerland are not. New Zealand has a small but capable
military, and Singapore maintains one of the highest levels of military
expenditure per capita. While compulsory military service applies in Austria,
Switzerland, and Singapore, Iceland, Ireland, and New Zealand rely on voluntary
military service. What makes a nation more peaceful than others?
Read the article and learn about the countries that are regarded as the
world’s safest.
