All Facebook is saying is give peace a chance, with a little bit of data thrown in.

The social network’s data team touted its contribution to the Peace on Facebook page in the form of a chart titled, “Is World Peace Possible?,” which asks the question, “Do you think we will achieve world peace within 50 years?,” to users in 11 countries in their native tongues, displaying the sentiment graphically.

The countries chosen by the Facebook data team to appear in the chart: Albania, Egypt, Germany, Israel, Korea, Russia, Serbia, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, and the United States.

The Peace on Facebook page debuted in October 2009, as part of Stanford University’s Peace Dot initiative.
