global peace
Universal absence of war
Global peace is the absence of war and armed conflict across nations, often paired with conditions like cooperation, justice, and mutual security.
The phrase appears frequently in diplomatic language and humanitarian discourse: The treaty was hailed as a step toward global peace.
Sometimes used skeptically to suggest an ideal too lofty to achieve: Global peace sounds nice, but human nature gets in the way.
