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.
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
As long as you dont find any odd little rings, you should be fine out there.
New Zealand s cloaking abilities are insane
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.
Que bom! (How nice!)
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
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.
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?
San Marino, or as ancient Rome called it, "YOU DID WHAT‽"
Japan has to be a strong contender, if you are looking for peacefulness in your day to day life
peacefulness in your day to day life
Social pressure is so intense that people rather kill themselves than do anything out of the ordinary… Do not confuse conformity with peace.
Not in my experience there. It the only place I have ever been where you can be in a gas station/ convenience store late on a Saturday night in a less than flash area, and see a guy rock up dressed like Liberace and do his shopping and flounce off without anyone even batting an eyelid let alone commenting. You wouldnt try that here. Yes, there is a degree of conformity enforced there around behaviour by social pressure, but in other places it is by violence
So they are too stiff to even make comments ;-)
You would have such freedom here in my region as well.
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 lowest birthrate.
And there’s nothing peaceful about StarCraft or kpop.
And it currently has a higher suicide rate than Japan.
I haven’t heard anything crazy going on Sealand.
but it’s not a place I would dream of going either.
Peaceful and safest? It’s Iceland. For 14 years in a row as of 2024. It is also one of the most homogeneous and isolated.
Definitely! Iceland is a good country.
