Norway - The most peaceful country of the world?

Norway is the most peaceful country of the world, according to the Global Peace Index, developed by The Vision of Humanity in conjunction with the Economist Intelligence Unit.
The Economist Intelligence Unit, in conjunction with an international team of academics and peace experts, has compiled an innovative new Global Peace Index (GPI), which ranks 120 nations according to their relative peacefulness. The Global Peace Index is composed of 24 indicators, ranging from a nation’s level of military expenditure to its relations with neighbouring countries and the level of respect for human rights.
Next to Norway on the ranking are New Zealand, Denmark, Ireland, Japan, Finland, Sweden, Canada, Portugal and Austria.
I don't believe this, there most be another country who is better than Norway.
