Are the people of East Africa -- who are very multilingual, often speaking 5 or 7 languages -- more peaceable than Americans? Are they especially more rational and peaceable when talking in a language that is not their mother tongue (and so probably talking with members of other linguistic groups).
I don't know, but given that we're comparing between one of the poorest regions of the world and one of the richest, I'd expect controlling for all the confounders to be a nightmare. No one's claiming this to be the sole determinant of rationality, after all, much less peaceableness.
