Read with care Second illustrative run, with exposure set nation by nation. The capability scores are candidate ratings and the test settings are GINC desk settings; neither has been adopted. Scores are from the GINC National Capability Index 2026, which describes them as candidate ratings. Exposure is set nation by nation from the CIA World Factbook 2025 and the scenario's regional exposure. Results show the method working on real scores; they are not findings about any nation. How the tests work.

Vulnerability and opportunity

Archetype: Holding ground. Mid-table on both: neither badly hit nor well placed. One of 43 nations with a similar pattern of results.

Exposed over 10 years: higher vulnerability, lower opportunity than the median nation.

Main drivers of vulnerability over 10 years: Global financial crisis, Geoeconomic confrontation, Energy supply shock. Highest exposure indicators: no coastline; internet users as a share of population; trade in goods and services relative to gdp; urban share of population; share of population aged 65 and over; services as a share of gdp; adult obesity rate.
