Barbados, Singapore, New Zealand...
Also, with regard to Sweden, they have been a destination for poor refugees who on average integrate less than ideally into their society, given social, economic, political and spiritual differences between host country and new arrivals.

I challenge you to go to Sweden, travel threw it for 4 weeks and then honestly say its a society that is at each other throat.

I challenge you to go to anywhere that's not obviously a civil war and say that they're at each other's throats.
That argument makes no sense: a lot of people have very exotic tourism in Paris, New York, or in Guadeloupe. Yet for those who look beyond the surface the situation is shocking and on the right day of BLM / gilets jaunes protests you may believe the entire society has lost their shit (when in fact it's just the logical conclusion of a tiny minority of officials/businesses exploiting the entire population).
There are riots in Sweden too [0], and what some consider to be terrorist activities from the far left to the far right [1].
