Czech Republic is ninth among the ten most peaceful countries in the globe: Global Peace Index 2021

When traveling and choosing a destination, apart from the offerings of the destination, one of the very important factors taken into consideration, especially over the past few years has been safety. Whether the person is a family traveller, a solo traveller, a millennial, young adult or even an elderly traveller choosing a destination that is safe and peaceful is a priority.

The Global Peace Index (GPI) measures more than just the presence or absence of war. It captures the absence of violence or the fear of violence across three domains: Safety and Security, Ongoing Conflict, and Militarisation. Europe remains the most peaceful region in the world and it is one of 3 regions to see an improvement in peacefulness on the 2021 GPI.

According to the latest Global Peace Index (GPI), the Czech Republic is the ninth most peaceful country in the world and the eighth most peaceful country in Europe.

The country’s strongest points were safe communities, low crime rates, difficulty in accessing weapons and the low impact of terrorism. Furthermore, the capital city of Prague is considered one of the safest and most beautiful cities in the world, too.
