In the list of 2024 most peaceful countries in the world, Pakistan is among the last 24 countries, but there are some improvements in some cases. The Institute of Economics and Peace (IEP) has released an annual report that lists the most peaceful countries in the world.
According to the report, Pakistan has risen 2 ranks to rank 140 out of 163 countries. Meanwhile, India is ranked 116th, Sri Lanka 100th, Saudi Arabia 102nd, China 88th, United Arab Emirates 53rd, USA 132nd and Bangladesh 93rd.

After Iceland, European countries Ireland and Austria are ranked as the second and third most peaceful countries respectively. Last year, Ireland was third and Austria fifth.
