International Military Report (MT/PMT) - May 2011

This is the (hopefully no longer) irregularly updated MT/PMT International Military Report, published by yours truly, Panzersharkcat! The last time I published an MT/PMT report was in September. However, since I am starting over with using RP population and am too lazy to adjust previous calculations, future reports will be using this one as the benchmark. To minimize bias, I will be using Burn's formula in combination with the RP population and adjust accordingly. This is also slightly different from the others in that I no longer bother with the trade deficit/surplus and currency strength stats, since those don't factor into the formula. I'll also throw in scores with Ace's formula at the end, with unadjusted and adjusted populations. Unadjusted population and military figures are in brackets.

Format:
Raw score - Relative score: Nation
Description
Raw score - Relative score: Nation
Description

7.4967972 - 10 : Greater Switzerland
The superpower. Second to none in economy and defense spending, with the second largest navy, the second largest air force, and a brigade of rocketeer troops. The people of this planet ought to be thankful that they are about as neutral a state as an empire can be.
3.1893755 - 4.254 : The United Municipalities
Disproportionally powerful for its size. The second largest per capita GDP, the second largest defense budget, and highly advanced technology score this nation a respectable 4.254, actually surpassing a far larger Alanda and Alexia.
3.1625990 - 4.219 : Alanda and Alexia
This large nation has been stagnant for a while now. Previously minor powers are beginning to eclipse it. It's still high up, but if it keeps it up, it won't be pretty.
3.0164271 - 4.024 : Bismouth
This nation is becoming a fast-rising power. If Alanda and Alexia does not watch out, it may surpass it.
0.9691286 -  1.293 : Caesar's Legion
More or less the same. They get slaughtered against any competent modern army.
0.3170824 - 0.423 : New Vegas
Nothing much has changed. Securitrons are pretty much the only threat. That and the fact that the Swiss Empire seems to have invested quite a bit into the region.
0.1174116 - 0.157 : Kahndaq
Insignificant except for the fact that its ruling family are living gods.
0.0002330089 - 0.00031 : The North African Enclave Remnant
Defying all expectations, they have become even more irrelevant due to a fair sized economic crunch.
? - ? : The DC Enclave
They've pretty much been vanquished, and so no ranking is available for them.

With Ace's formula


95.535 - 100.00 : Greater Switzerland
87.936 - 92.046 : The United Municipalities
85.538 - 89.536 : Bismouth
82.505 - 86.361 : Alanda and Alexia
78.812 : 82.495 : The Enclave
73.404 - 76.835 : Kahndaq
63.740 - 66.719 : The North African Enclave Remnant
61.712 - 64.596 : New Vegas
52.812 - 55.280 : Caesar's Legion

Hey, the rest of us should be able to up our populations too. Not just you.

As for the DC Enclave, probably best to just say 'Undisclosed' rather than 'vanquished'. Heh.

Bismouth has slowly gained some population. Not on a large scale, but I think by 5 or 6 million.

Actually, Selathorn went up from 175 to 195 million. I've had it as 753 million for a few months now. I think.

They'd all be slowly increasing on a normal birth/death rate anyway.

Do you want a rate of increase?

Depends on the time rate we're using between months.

I don't know the time between, though.

Meh. I'd assume then 2-3 million increase between reports then for Caesar's Legion. 3-4 for A&A. 700K for New Vegas.

Add that in next month?

I suppose.
