List of countries by intentional homicide rate to 1999

List of countries by [...] rate to 1999 per year per 100,000 inhabitants. The reliability of underlying national [...] rate data may vary.

[...] demographics are affected by changes in trauma care, leading to changed lethality of violent assaults, so the [...] rate may not necessarily indicate the overall level of societal violence. They may also be underreported for political reasons.
