peacefulness) can mean a state of harmony, quiet or calm that is not disturbed
by anything at all, like a still pond with no dogs
Peace within and among states is a goal of many people and organizations.
One organization that was set up to bring peace among the nations and try to
make war a thing of the past was the League of Nations after World War I. When
it failed to stop World War II, it was replaced by the United Nations which tries
to make the world peaceful. This means that if any member is attacked or
invaded by another country without attacking that country first, the other
members will come to help the country that was attacked first. This idea was
used by the United Nations to defend both South Korea and Kuwait when they
were attacked.
Martin Luther King Jr. wrote in a letter he sent from the Birmingham jail 9 that,
"True peace is not merely the absence of tension: it is the presence ofjustice_"
In other words, Real peace is more than just problems being gone: there must
be fairness to have peace.
Alfred Nobel created an annual award, the Nobel Peace Prize, for the person
who had done the most to bring peace to the world.
