New Zealand. Far enough away from the world for it not to be cared for.
Has Australia as a buffer for stupidity.
Can’t be found on any good world map.
Is enough timezones ahead of everyone else to have forewarning about any shitstorm happening.
Ahh, New Zealand. Very similar to the rest of the English-speaking world, but introverted.
Introverted? I thought all English speaking countries were on the introverted, occasionally loud, spectrum.
Source: an introverted Brazilian that could pass as extroverted in Australia.
I’m from New Zealand, and although it does have much to recommend it, it does have some issues with crime, gangs, meth etc. similar to other Western countries. Nowhere near as bad as South Africa or a number of US cities, but not great either. There are more peaceful places believe it or not
New Zealand s cloaking abilities are insane
As long as you dont find any odd little rings, you should be fine out there.
There’s a reason billionaires are building their doomsday bunkers there.
And probably why Maori culture survived as long as it has.
New Zealand, an island country in the southwestern Pacific Ocean, has no bordering countries. It lies over 1,500 km east of Australia across the Tasman Sea, with the Pacific Ocean stretching indefinitely to the north, east, and south. The total land area of the country encompasses approximately 268,021 km2 (103,483 mi2).
Portugal.
We’ve been doing our own thing since 1143. People are mostly nice, crime is very low, most social unrest culminates in barbecues instead of burning vehicles, like is usual in France or Spain.
Colonizes all continents on earth, perpetrated the biggest slave trade in history, only decolonizes well after WW2 literally the last country on earth to do so
“Just doing our own thing” lmao
Que bom! (How nice!)

Saw a movie many years ago about…Taiwan, I think. The people were worried about hurting the WORMS when building a temple.
So I would say Taiwan if you mean “not bellicose”. Or do you mean serene?
I don’t know.
Japan has to be a strong contender, if you are looking for peacefulness in your day to day life
What’s the metrics?
Which place do you think is more happier?
I believe Bhutan is generally considered to be the happiest nation, but I’ve never been there, so don’t quote me on that.
San Marino, or as ancient Rome called it, "YOU DID WHAT‽"
Iceland, Denmark, Ireland, New Zealand, Austria, Singapore, Portugal, Slovenia, Japan, Switzerland, Canada
Andorra?
When was the last time you heard it on the news?
The country that was at war with Germany for 43 years?
But who hasn’t?
Honestly I dont know but I’d imagine somewhere like South Korea if I had to choose.
They’re embroiled in an ongoing civil war! Or, well, civil stalemate.
Racing Japan for the title of most overworked employees on Earth
And it currently has a higher suicide rate than Japan.
And lowest birthrate.
And there’s nothing peaceful about StarCraft or kpop.
South Korea is literally cyberpunk hell on earth…
No one’s said Canada yet? It’s probably Canada.
Agreed. Sometimes I imagine living in Montreal where I can learn French there and because of the National Film Board located over there. Sometimes I want to be American instead.
It just depends on where I feel like living in.
I haven’t heard anything crazy going on Sealand.
but it’s not a place I would dream of going either.
Sealand actually has actually been involved in some crazy shit during its history.
Particularly if you want to look at stuff per capita
Pitcairn
I heard Null Island is pretty peaceful.
But that’s probably because it’s just a buoy.
We were. But now number one Gun crime country in Europe. Woohoo!
