universal peace

Worldwide absence of conflict

Universal peace is a state in which all nations and peoples coexist without armed conflict or hostility—a goal invoked in treaties, religious teachings, and utopian visions.

The phrase often appears in aspirational contexts: working toward universal peace, a dream of universal peace.

Critics note it remains perpetually theoretical, while advocates treat it as humanity's highest collective aim.
