GPI is the indexing which records the global peace rankings of the countries. This survey is operated by the Institute for Economics and Peace.

All the 162 nations of the world are taken into consideration of the survey, and according to the experts, it covers almost 99.7% of the world’s total population. This kind of indexing helps people to understand the risk factors prevailing in different countries in the world. There are 23 indicators which are counted in the processes of scaling the nations between 1 to 5 ranking, based on their civil and administrative conditions which leads to the overall peaceful state of the society.

According to the latest issue of the report revealed last year, which is also the 11th edition of the GPI, the world can be considered a comparatively peaceful place to live with an improved scoring from the last year’s record. The global peace conditions prevailing in different countries are different; however, in order to essentially rank them on the basis of a common account, there are three determining conditions selected on the basis of which the rankings are done:

- The state of safety and security of civilians as well as foreigners in the society.
- The particular level of domestic conflicts as well as international conflicts.
- The extent of militarization prevailing over society and administration.

Syria
The crisis of civil war in Syria started back in 2011 when the early spring of the year witnessed a nationwide common protest, a rebellion against the authoritarian government of President Bashar Al Assad. In return, the government took stern and violent steps with sudden bombardments on civilians including residential areas, used barrels bombs, chemical weapons and indiscriminately attacked every area, even medical camps. The government extended the violent civil war even beyond this by trapping civilians, restricting food supply, medical aid, etc. The UN had estimated an overall death of almost 250,000 people, along with dislocation of 7.6 million people, and more than 4 million becoming refugees.

Afghanistan 
The war that started back in 2001 in Afghanistan is known to the entire world which even called for the intervention of international forces like NATO and allied armies. The civil war in this country is still on, and it all began after the September 11 attacks. The international forces included US armies intervened into the situation in order to remove the marks of al Qaida and the Taliban. Thousands of people have been reported to be dead on account of Afghanistan civil war. Also, Afghanistan is known to be one of the highest death rate countries.

South Sudan
This country witnessed a massive outbreak of civil violence in July 2016. The internal conflicts initiated between the Sudanese nomadic tribes after the country gained independence in 2011, and later spread amongst the supporters and non-supporters.
