Iceland came out in first place in the most recent rankings, with the country having never taken part in a full-scale war or invasion and is geographically remote, one potential advantage in conflict.

The country has no military but is a member of NATO, meaning it comes under the alliance’s Article 5 collective defence clause - an attack on one, is an attack on all.

Households are being urged to buy one appliance to prepare for the potential outbreak of WW3, or other mass disruptions like another pandemic, internet outages, and extreme weather conditions.

The government runs a website to prepare the public for national disruptions including war, extreme weather and cyber attacks.

As part of its list of advice for households, people are being told to buy one crucial item – battery or wind-up radios.

This is because this type of radio doesn’t need power from the National Grid, which may be disrupted during a crisis. You can get a wind-up radio from Amazon here for your home emergency kit. And it can be used for activities such as hiking and camping.
