World peace
World peace is a future ideal of freedom, peace and happiness among and within all nations. The realization of world peace may also make the idea of individual nations obsolete.
The democratic peace theory
Proponents of the controversial democratic peace theory claim that strong empirical evidence exists that democracies almost never make war against each other (with certain exceptions, such as Britain's declaration of war with Finland in December 1941). An increasing number of nations have become democratic since the industrial revolution. A world peace may thus become possible if this trend continues and if the democratic peace theory is correct.
