Based on the Map above, it would seem the bulk of the world's population who reside in the lowest state of peace resides in democratic and non-islamic India. The state of peace there appearently even lower than the virtual narco state of Mexico.
Makes perfect sense. Any Nation where laws are based upon reason and free thinking, will undoubtedly be more peaceful than the emotional hotbed of religious dogma. I mean it completely astounds me how say a woman can be stoned to death (an absolutely horrific and savage death) for having the audacity to have an affair with another man. I'm not advocating adultery mind, but a bit of perspective wouldn't go amiss. As long as Nations continue letting religious texts dictate policy and laws they will forever be constrained into their current backward, and often barbaric, way of thinking.
The truth may be puzzling. It may take some work to grapple with. It may be counterintuitive. It may contradict deeply held prejudices. It may not be consonant with what we desperately want to be true. But our preferences do not determine what's true - Carl Sagan
Why is north Korea not included? I thought they were the most peaceful nation on earth under the guidance and blessing of their eternal president and god: Kum Suck Dik II.

As any north Korean can assure you, north korea enjoys perfect peace because under the guidance of great kim, even dissidents in north Korea all lies peacefully, shot in the head.

No idea why they didn't include North Korea, seems to me it'd be right up there in the 140's range. 
Yeah, I saw that video a few years ago. Of course we already knew that.
"Sisters, you know only the north; I have traveled in the south lands. There are churches there, believe me, that cut their children too, as the people of Bolvangar did--not in the same way, but just as horribly. They cut their sexual organs, yes, both boys and girls; they cut them with knives so that they shan't feel. That is what the Church does, and every church is the same: control, destroy, obliterate every good feeling. So if a war comes, and the Church is on one side of it, we must be on the other, no matter what strange allies we find ourselves bound to."
