Hello,

nothing fancy here, just a view of how developed are some countries judging by the military rank of their citizens.

Let me explain it a bit. 

1) I looked at players ranked General or better.

2) All countries with nobody ranked as General are not in the table.

3) After I counted the General + ranked players, I summed it up and if the number of General + ranked players was higher than 10, I went back and looked at 3 more lower ranks (row Total General +)

4) In the last row the total sum of players ranked Major General + is calculater. The blue numbers are for countries with 30+ players ranked Major General or more.


Some facts: 

Croatia is the highest ranked due to some players from Turkey in the recent days.

Algeria seems to be strong, due to players from other countries like Georgia, with no lower ranked active players what so ever.

The highest ranking player comes from Paraguay.

Slovenia with 7 and Spain with 6 still outrank Croatia + Turkey (5+1) by far in the SF Leutenant Captain ranks.

SF Leutenant is the most common rank with 275 players owning that rank.

Slovenia, Spain, Georgia and Croatia (Turkey?) are the only 4 countries with 30+ players ranked Major General, Leutenant General and General Field Marshal (room for more higher developed players in the future) with Turkey and China not that far behind those numbers.

Slovenia and Croatia (Turkey?)  are the only countries with 10+ SF Leutenant Colonels.

Croatia (Turkey?), Slovenia and China and are the only countries with 20+ SF Leutenants, while Spain, Serbia and Georgia are at 15+... all those countries combined are at 132 out of 275 players with that rank.

Only 4 countries have 10 Generals... all exactly 10 = Slovenia, Spain, Georgia and Colombia.




That is that. I hope you like what you see, I do. And think where the votes come from in the elections... remember this article. 

Why? I think that if one started the game in the first month and is cliching every day, should reach at least rank General by now so if not a newbie, all lower ranked players are pure 2-clickers.
