15 Most Murderous Countries in the World

Everyone wants to live in a safe neighborhood. In many parts of the world, however, that's a luxury some people just don't have. Sadly, the concentration of deadly violence in specific parts of the globe is nothing new. Murder rates in the Americas have remained high for decades, around five to eight times higher than Europe and Asia. However, there are some exceptions. So, if you are planning to move, you should know about the most murderous countries in the world.

Intentional homicide demographics are affected by changes in trauma care, leading to changed destructiveness of violent assaults, so the intentional homicide rate may not necessarily indicate the overall level of societal violence. They may also be under-reported for political reasons. Another problem for the comparability of the following figures is that some data may include attempts. In general the values in these lists should not include failed attempts except when mentioned otherwise.

The modern world is everything but a safe place. This sad but indisputable fact has been proven by several other lists we have already published. There are many various statistics evaluating the safety in different parts of the world published every year and possibly the most alarming and disturbing one is the international homicide rate statistics made by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime.

After reading about these murderous countries, you maybe are clueless now. But if you must move, take a look at the article Insidermonkey made on Country-by-Country Life Expectancy: The World’s 15 Healthiest Countries before taking any decision.
