Countries Rank Ordered
by Number of Peace Monuments

The first table lists all countries worldwide. Following tables show areas within Canada, Japan, the United Kingdom & the United States of America. Countries or areas within countries are rank ordered by the total number of their peace monuments.

Separate columns account for 388 Museums for Peace (which are living institutions, have educational programs, and change with time) and for more than 1,300 "Static" Peace Monuments (which never change), e.g. statues, murals, and fountains.
