You know sometimes we cannot be very accurate with the links we provide. Since our main intention is usually to support our own thesis, we occassionally come up with questionable references.
I don´t have to show any respect to those idiots who put up that list. Even a ten year old could discover the grotesque errors evident in the results. It is not even necessary to check out the methodology.
Some things can indeed be discovered using reasoning, that is how Chandrasekhar calculated the presence of blackholes. A list like that can not be prepared without having first hand knowledge about the countries ranked.
I had a look at the results of the results of the investigation. I said howcomes Austuria can be the 5th most peaceful country...Weren´t they suffer from extreme nationalist politicians power just a year ago? Then i looked Turkey´s ranking ohhh what a dengeraus country is that! Turkey is under Mali, Uganda, Cameroon, Iran, Turkmenistan, Haiti, Yemen, even Venezualla, even Cyprus, Malavi, Libya, Tanzania, Bolivia ( omg even USA what a horrible country is that
So i decided to check the indicators and methodology of the reseach. Becouse Turkey should be more peaceful than warrier countries or the counrtries where photograpy is even forbidden; or drug seller countries and internal warriers...
I realized that power of military is a negative indicator as well as conflicts with other countries. Potantiel to terrorist acts are also negative indicators.
According to those indicators it is very easy for a person to rank Turkey at the deepest place of the list. Turkey has a powerful military, has terrorizm, problems with Armenia and Cyprus. Guys, if Turkey werent support peace in the world she would not mass with finding diplomatic solutions to the conflicts with those countries. If terrorism werent being supported by "peaceful" countries things would be easier.
However that does not mean Turkey perfoms well about peace. She has serious problems on poltical instability, (but not as much as Mali has , terrorism, personal rights of all individuals and better relationships with neighbours although some of their´s difficile attitudes. Let me remind u that Turkey is in a very significant process to solve all those problems.
Coming back to the main thread i really dont think that Turkey deserves 0 on hostility to foreigners. We can rather talk about over hospitality to forigners especially if they are women Seriously i think that investigation does not display an objective view. But for sure we all have too much to do for peace in the country and peace in the world.
