Heyy guys. Is peace the absence of war [literal and figurative] no matter how badly some have it, or is peace equality or equity?

This is purposely vague by the way. Peace as defined by government is likely more so absence of war. Not because its the literal definition, but because it’s hard to get more than that.

equity I guess. absence of war means some people could have it really bad right? and it'd just go unchecked like how the lead up to wwii went with all the appeasement and stuff. that's not very peacelike. and equality doesn't make sense either I don't think. depending on certain regions culture or geographic struggles they're going to need and want different things so. like. idk isn't equity the obvious choice here or am I missing something

Equality & equity… there’s no peace until everyone has peace, I’d say. But from a technological standpoint, it’s the absence of War.
