This is still Temporarily Closed until the 14/15th of June. This thread is temporarily close until my exams finish in mid-June. After that I will be doing a, what will probably amount to, day long ranking of all outstanding applications. Please DO NOT post any applications here until it is open again.
The International Power Classification Organisation (IPCO) was formed as a division of the Afalian Foreign Office in 1980 to rank and classify nations of the world by their power in international relations. The IPCO uses a variety of statistics and measurements to determine whether a nation is anything from a normal nation to a superpower and all the categories in between. In addition to this it also highlights emerging powers and potential superpower states.
The different measures of power are as follows, from the least powerful to the most:
Nations of this category are normal nations. They do not hold any significant power, inside their region or internationally. Usually their diplomatic influence will be severely limited with a lack of international involvement, their defence forces will be small, their economy will be small or weak and their cultural influence thin. They will often be struggling with corruption within their governments.
Alternatively normal nations may simply be isolationist, avoiding involvement with international affairs or young in game terms and not having the prestige to step into power categories as of yet.
Nations of this category are small powers. They hold slight, but not anywhere near significant regional or international power. Usually their diplomatic influence will be minor at best, with a lack of international involvement, although regionally they will be respected, their defence forces will be small but possibly growing, their economy stable but growth small and their cultural influence thin. Corruption in government may be commonplace.
Nations of this category are middle powers. They hold significant regional power, but lack international power. Usually their diplomatic influence within their region will be well respected and they may have some sway over other nations. Their international influence however will be selective, their defence forces will be average to large and they will be able to defend their nation and any territories well. Their economy will be an average size and they may often have large energy, agriculture or manufacturing sectors. Their cultural influence may be spread across their region but not internationally. Often corruption in government will be a problem, but not commonplace.
Nations of this category are regional powers. They will hold extreme power and influence over their region. States which are unrivalled over power and influence within their region will possess a form of regional hegemony and will often claim to be a regional power. They will be well integrated into their region and their ideology on foreign, social and economic affairs will be highly influential on other nations. Regional neighbours will often look to regional powers before making decisions of their own. Their defence forces will be much larger than other regional nations and they will dictate the regional security agenda. They may include green water navies. They may take part, selectively, in some foreign interventions outside of their region and take part more freely in regional interventions with regards to security. Their economy will be large and often growing and they may commonly possess a primarily sophisticated service based and financial economy. Their cultural influence will be widespread across the region and partially internationally. Often, corruption will be rare.
Nations of this category are great powers. They will hold all of the power and influence in all areas of that of a regional power. They will hold power and influence on a global scale and will often act an almost hegemony of their particular region. Their ideologies on foreign, social and economic affairs will be internationally influential and respected. They will be actively involved in international affairs and have a wide variety of international allies and relationships, often through international social, economic and defence based alliances. Small, middle and regional powers will often look to great powers before making decisions of their own. Their defence forces will be significantly large and will often include a large army, a large air force and a blue-water navy. They may often take part in foreign interventions both regionally and globally, often leading the intervention. Their economy will be very large, their currency strong, with high levels of growth and human development. They may commonly posses a primarily sophisticated service based and financial economy. Their cultural influence will be regionally and internationally widespread and they may be considered entertainment superpowers through their cultural spread. They may have historic cultural influence as well. Often, corruption will be very rare.
Nations of this category are superpowers. They will hold significant power and influence on a global scale, with the ability to influence events and project power on a worldwide scale to protect its own interests. It may potentially be defined as a global hegemony in some circumstances. Their ideologies on foreign, social and economic affairs will be internationally influential and respected. They will be the leader or one of the leaders in international affairs and have a large and wide variety of international allies and relationships, often through international social, economic and defence based alliances. They will often be seen as the leader of a collection of great powers and great, regional, middle, small powers will consider superpowers decisions before making their own. Their defence forces will be very large and will almost always include a very large army, extensive air force and a blue water navy. They will almost always lead foreign interventions or take on foreign interventions singlehandedly. They will may have a series of colonies and territories which will be well defended from potential attack. Their economy will be very large and their currency will be very strong on international markets, with very high levels of growth and human development. They may commonly posses a primarily sophisticated service based and financial economy. Their cultural influence will have been in place for sometime and be internationally widespread, they will almost always be considered entertainment superpowers. Almost always, corruption will be very rare.
In addition to these ranks IPCO will also label nations with two potential labels if they fit the category:
Emerging powers are normal nations which are beginning to emerge as international powers, often small ones, but the label may sometimes be applied to small powers becoming middle or regional powers. Diplomatically they will be becoming more regionally and internationally involved and beginning to join alliances. They may be developing their defence forces, their economy will often be growing, with cultural influence through exports also beginning.
Potential superpowers are regional or great powers which have the potential to achieve superpower status relatively soon. They will almost always be great powers, their diplomatic influence and power significantly large and well established, with a large military, economy and cultural influence. In all of these areas they will be beginning to expand their influence and power, either through economic policies such as state spending, foreign policy such as closer security co-operation or even imperial type expansion, or reforms in order to modernise and achieve this superpower status.
IPCO uses a variety of statistics and information in order to come to its conclusion. Some of these statistics may seem obscere or ridiculous but all are useful in calculating your nation's standing. Please give as much information as possible and be as honest as possible. In order to determine where your nation is ranked, please use the form below, filling out all information:

OOC: In reality the only superpower around is the US and superpowers are extremely rare and develop over decades and centuries. This is NS however so some creative licence must be taken.
FAQs Regarding Regional Powers: As in real life the size of a region will affect whether a nation can be considered a regional power. So nations that lead large regions like the Pacific could be classed as regional powers, so too could nations in charge of much smaller 15 nations or so regions.
Regarding NS vs RP Stats: I know as well as most that the NS stats are not always factually representative of your nation, however they do provide a general measurement. If you feel your NS stats are completely off then use your RP stats or explain that in RP terms something is different. But be reasonable-if your nation was created yesterday and claims it is one of the most influential on the planet, it's not going to cut it.
Comments and Criticism: If you have any comments, suggestions, criticisms or just want to rant about the fact your nation isn't a superpower, please contact me via telegram and I'll be happy to read and respond to your message. If you'd also like to telegram me saying how pleased you are at the ranking and how great this thread is then I'd also be happy.
Re-Rankings: The world of NS is often fast paced and things change fast. Therefore you may feel you may deserve a higher, or even lower ranking, as the result of a major change your nation was involved in or underwent. If you want to be re-ranked please feel free to fill out the form again but please note somewhere on the app that this is a re-ranking.
OMG it's been like 52 minutes since I posted-why the hell haven't you ranked me yet so I can feed my ego?: Be patient. I have a life, I'm busy with other stuff etc, etc. I usually update the rankings every 1-2 weeks or so. If you haven't been ranked yet you will be, so DON'T PANIC.
