Global Peace Index 2017

#4 here. Not too bad, although one notch down from last year.
 
I was very surprised to see Poland at 22. One of a few countries in the area that hasn't been hit by terrorism. But seems like the govt. is the terrorist there against the people.
The largest drop in score is recorded
by Poland, driven by a deterioration in the
intensity
of organised internal conflict
and
likelihood of violent
demonstrations
. Several of the policies enacted by the
government of the right-wing PiS party, which took
power in 2015, have led to growing tensions between
liberal and socially conservative values, resulting in
public protests.


Got a friend there that's from England and he says its a pretty good country to live in. Price are not too high and for the most part the standard of living is OK.
