Buddhism is not about wars and peace but does promote inner or individual peace called nirvana. Basically, you meditate.

The Middle Path - non extreme

This is the Middle Path which the Perfect One discovered and expounded, which gives rise to vision and knowledge, which leads to peace, wisdom, enlightenment, and nibbana - the Noble Eightfold Path:

1. Right Understanding: of suffering, of its origin, of its cessation, of the way leading to the cessation of suffering.

2. Right Intention: of renunciation, free from craving; of good will, free from aversion; of compassion, free from cruelty.

3. Right Speech: abstaining from false speech, abstaining from malicious speech, abstaining from harsh speech, abstaining from useless speech.

4. Right Action: abstaining from taking life, abstaining from stealing, abstaining from sexual misconduct.

5. Right Livelihood: giving up wrong livelihood, one earns one’s living by a right form of livelihood.

6. Right effort: to prevent unarisen unwholesome evil states of mind from arising by making effort, stirring up energy and exerting mind.

7. Right mindfulness: mindful contemplation of the body, mindful contemplation of feelings, mindful contemplation of the mind, mindful contemplation of mental objects.

8. Right Concentration: Quite secluded from sense pleasures, secluded from unwholesome states of mind one enters and dwells in the first jhana (meditative absorbtion), which is accompanied by applied thought and sustained thought with rapture and happiness born of seclusion.
