In this video, we explore the top 10 countries with the highest crime rates and compare them against 10 of the safest nations around the globe. Based on data from the World Population Review (as featured on RoughMaps), we dig into the factors that contribute to high crime, such as political instability, poverty, corruption, weak law enforcement, and contrast them with characteristics of low-crime countries, including strong governance, social safety nets, and public trust in institutions. You’ll see how Venezuela, Papua New Guinea, Afghanistan, and others top the list of most dangerous places, while nations like Iceland, Austria, New Zealand, and Singapore rank among the safest. Whether you’re a travel enthusiast, a data junkie, or simply curious about global safety, this video offers insights, context, and surprises.
