The Global Peace Index (GPI) measures the level of peacefulness of states and territories that are independent.
The source explains that it "measures the state of peace across three domains: the level of Societal Safety and Security; the extent of Ongoing Domestic and International Conflict; and the degree of Militarisation". It further explains that "all scores for each indicator are normalised on a scale of 1-5, whereby qualitative indicators are banded into five groupings and
quantitative ones are scored from 1 to 5, to the third decimal point".
Figures have been rounded, and may slightly differ from the source's.
