The GPI is a yearly report that measures the state of peace in 163 countries. It takes into account a variety of factors, including the level of violence, the extent of militarization, and the level of trust in government.

The countries on this list are all facing significant challenges, including ongoing conflict, high levels of violence, and weak governance. These factors make them very dangerous places to live, work, and travel.

It is important to note that the GPI is just one measure of a country's safety. Other factors, such as personal safety, crime rates, and natural disasters, can also contribute to a country's overall level of danger.

If you are planning to travel to any of these countries, it is important to do your research and be aware of the risks involved.
