How can martial art affect society?

How can martial art affect society?
Japan and Korea are relatively crime-free because martial arts training is so common; teachings of restraint, discipline, self control, etc, etc, etc, carry over to make "better citizens." Not only that, the discpline and mental toughness developed in martial arts training transfer over academically; Japan and Korea outperform other industrialized countries because of the discipline of martial arts. In Israel, where Krav Maga is basically "P.E." the training of Krav Maga may in fact be a contributor to making Israel the "highest per capita college degree earning country in the world," however, that may have more to do with general Jewish culture than martial arts.
