No other country compares with the high score of Finland. Close behind Finland in ratings are Swedent, Denmark, Switzerland and Norway.
According to the foundation’s report, the most unstable country in the world is Somalia. This was followed by the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Sudan and South Sudan.
