Terra Power and Development Index

Rutania is right where it needs to be.

Gaduridos is also missing from the list. I would have imagined Gaduridos to have some extra influence because of its permanent seat on the Security Council of the Collective Security & Co-operation Union.

I also imagined Trigunia to be higher up the power index, because it's meant to have nuclear weapons and a powerful military (or so I've always presumed, anyway...).

I put Gaduridos as a middle power nation b/c despite the permanent seat on the CSCO, the nation hasn't exactly involved itself in the issues of the day and a Gaduri voice is not heard, though I hope that changes so i can rank it higher!
As for Trigunia, while that might be their history, i do not see that reflected in their current actions. Alas i feel that Trigunia is decided towards the bottom of the barrel until they engage in a larger foreign policy scheme.

I am writing my own list for this based off a number of factors and its somewhat similar, but different because it applies real world international relation concepts into the game.

hmm i'd be interested to see what you come up with! I am wary however of applying in game information to this given the various problems associated with game that we all know off. I am interested to see how thou applies international relations theory to all of this though.

Indeed. It might be awhile, its part of OTAF.

Take your time, though i expect it to be better than the slap job i did haha!

I should have some free time after midterms, so I'll try and work on the formula a bit and flesh it out some more that way it can be a bit more dynamic and easier to compute.

I'd be wary of any formulas b/c of the unreliability of in game statistics and that over time given nation changing policies, we see nations become advanced and destitute...

Majatra - Is by far the most powerful continent and has many powerful nations inside of it. Vanuku is the most powerful nation in Majatra, followed by Zardugal, Deltaria and Kafuristan.

Artania - Is the second most powerful continent and has nations that can highly influence others. Luthori is the most powerful nation in Artania, followed by Dorvik, Dundorf and Rutania.

Dovani - The third most powerful continent and capo twins the most powerful nation, Indrala, followed by Dankuk, Hulstria & Gao Soto and Sekowo.

Seleya - The fourth most powerful continent, not as powerful as other continents but it still has some influence. Baltusia is the most powerful nation in Seleya, followed by Rildanor, Tukarali and Aldegar.

Makon - The fifth most powerful not much influence with not a lot land. Hutori is the most powerful in the continent, followed by Davostag.

Keris - The sixth most powerful not much influence and not much land. New Endralon is the most powerful in the region, followed by Trigunia.

I assumed that each nation was in order and I ranked each continent based on the power of the countries inside of it.
