Internally displaced persons

Tier A· Official

People displaced within their own country by conflict and violence (IDMC via World Bank). Zero for most countries; a few conflict states dominate.

100 = fewest internally displaced (most stable), 0 = most

Mixed reference years (2011–2025). This metric uses each country's most recent available year, so countries are not all measured in the same year — cross-country comparison is weakened. Each row shows its own reference year.

How this score is built

The stock of internally displaced persons — people forced to flee their homes by conflict and violence but who remain within their country — World Bank indicator SM.POP.IDPC (from the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre, IDMC). Direction is higher_worse. Most countries have no conflict displacement (0) and a few (Syria, DR Congo, Sudan, Colombia) hold millions, so we normalize with percentile rank and invert: 100 = most stable. The raw count is shown. Most recent year per country.

⚠️ Limited coverage — not a world ranking. Only 82 of 250 countries have data for this indicator, so most of the map is grey by design. Read the ranking below (the primary view here) as a comparison within the covered group, not a global one.
