Hmm, maybe I spoke too soon. Peace referring to forced peace, kinda like a government pressing a civic society on its people. Peace in cooperation and understanding doesn't necessarily breed contempt in most cases, and in some can actually be used to create a higher level of learning and advancement. But there are some cases where peace does have negative effects on the people, I think.
If I may draw a rough analogy, I heard that a seedling that's buried deep in soil actually grows a lot better and turns out a lot stronger compared to one that's at the surface. Opposition is a prerequisite to healthy progress. Like Napoleon's reign after the French Revolution! Maybe some societies already had their fair share of opposition, but that's what I think.
