Friday offtopic. World stability in a chart

[airiefairie]

In terms of stability, all countries are not created equal. Some are rich, some are poor, some are violent and some are safe. The Fund For Peace, a U.S.-based NGO, stack ranks 174 countries every year based on how stable a country is. Hard data such as economic indicators, security, strength of factions and other indicators are analyzed and compared yearly. Each country, based on its data, is given a score and ranked from 1 to 174. The higher the rank, the more unstable the country. The data may surprise you.
