Conclusion
Countries as these sets a perfect example to the world and honour the world peace. These countries are mostly under-developed and some are developing ones, yet they show us that their strength is peace and their wealth is people. If they can hold up the peace with such ease then the countries that are High in economical and agricultural statistics should watch and observe. Yes, they are capable of holding up the peace but due to their economic fights among other's we, lost the insight about peace. I just want to shout out that countries with no military are proudly showing they are happy with what they have, and we should realize before it too late also some island countries are drowning due us (Global Warming) so we need to lead our hand by providing them the space in our country.
