Guess the map 11: New map at least once per year

[Kyriakos]

that is one of the more likely effects of a lower ranking

Some type of "democracy" index?

 

[Ferocitus]

Women who have been elected to parliaments, assemblies, congresses etc, i.e.
members of those bodies, senators, heads of state etc.

Some type of "democracy" index?

Yes the democracy index of The Economist
I was actually looking for a map showing the change rate over the last years, to see in how far recent populist developments are visible in quantified measurement methods commonly used, but could only find the static map.

The Democracy Index is an index compiled by the UK-based company the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) that intends to measure the state of democracy in 167 countries, of which 166 are sovereign states and 165 are UN member states.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_Index

The index was first produced in 2006, with updates for 2008, 2010 and the following years since then. The index is based on 60 indicators grouped in five different categories measuring pluralism, civil liberties and political culture. In addition to a numeric score and a ranking, the index categorises countries as one of four regime types: full democracies, flawed democracies, hybrid regimes and authoritarian regimes.

Open floor, i'm afraid

 

[cardgame]

Oh, does that mean I can post something?

scale is, from left to right, bad to better

 

[Synobun]

So nobody is good at whatever this is measuring?

Coexisting!

 

[AdrienIer]

Something about corruption ?

 

[Ferocitus]

Reported cases/death of a particular disease, e.g. bubonic (or pneumonic) plague?

 

[Kyriakos]

So blue and purple are some micro-nations/city-states?

Is this about crime? (eg prison-related)

Going from Albania, it might be about infant mortality rate/illness (?).

 

[cardgame]

Blue and Purple, while present on the scale, are not present in the map, and that's a clue in itself. An obscure one perhaps, but there it is.

it might be about infant mortality rate/illness

It reminds me of abortion legislation maps.

 

[inthesomeday]

I guess the biggest clue here is that the US is better than Western European countries like France, but other than that it looks like a fairly standard development-related map

Probably it is about numbers/ratio of abortion...
Ussually: the third-worldlier the country, the less abortions.
With Greece being always very high in abortion rate.

Does Serbia have no data? And also is it relevant that the only areas for which there is no data are Greenland, half of Somalia, and maybe Serbia?

 

[cardgame]

Yes that could be relevant

 

[Birdjaguar]

Nevermind

 

[Hrothbern]

Physicians per capita ?
