Again, how do you define the capitalistic system? I mean, since damn near every significantly sized culture on the face of the earth is capitalist, saying capitailst cultures is about as useful as saying that millions of people die every year at the hands of air breathers.

Might also mention, if we're going to compare capitalism to non-capitalism, the biggest examples of not-capitalist would be places like North Korea, USSR, China, Cuba and other communist nations. I'm forced to say, if your claim is that capitalism is more peaceful than not-capitalism, you're goin to need better examples than that.
