Once again, a country features on this list which has perhaps itself been a victim of xenophobia. Uruguay, next on our list of least xenophobic countries in the world has always been accepting of people of foreign descent, as shown by the government’s dedication to the recognition of Uruguayans who are of African descent. These people make up 10% of the country’s entire population. The government has pursued this policy in order to increase awareness and promote equality for its citizens.
