Why is this? From the way the issue spun it, modern transport would still be used (trains and buses) but not cars.
It fell by 47 points, which isn't that much, given that the world ranges from 2169.41 to -2081.89.
This small change was a knock-on effect of changes in spending priorities by the government.
That’s not particularly small, it was about 1/7 of my Scientific Advancement. And I was in the top 8% or something like that, so that’d be a huge hit for a nation with a lower score.
