If the All Blacks don't win on Saturday then things may get less peaceful.

Re: Most Peaceful Country
I hope the powers that be in NZ are taking note. It could happen here one day if they don't. It might take time but I've seen crime escalate in the 13 years since I first visited. It was very peaceful then, not so much now.

Re: Most Peaceful Country
It depends where you live in the UK. It's still 80% rural with miles of peaceful countryside, but most people never see that side of it. But because of its beauty and history and so many places of interest it's a tourist magnet, which means many of the best areas are very busy. It's happening in NZ too and people are complaining that the tourist spots are being spoiled. I couldn't go back to a big city in the UK, but I really don't like Auckland anymore either. too much traffic and too many people.
