General Freedom Index (GFI)

Postby Bilancorn » Fri May 02, 2025 1:14 am

Greetings! The Bilancornian Government, along with many ONGs decided to publish a new survey concerning freedoms. Unlike other surveys, the final score is easy to calculate, because every question can only be answered in 3 ways: Legal (+1), Illegal (0) and Partially Legal (+0,5).
Many topics will be covered by this survey, with a focus on individual rights. For each question, only your answer should be reported (so, for each question, just write down "legal", "illegal" or "partially legal".

Score calculation:

Free: 67-100.
These countries are considered free by the survey and, while the situations varies a lot between all nations, generally speaking the populance have a good amount of civil, economic and political freedoms.


Partially Free: 34-66
These countries have decent levels of freedoms, but significant flaws, corruption problems or conservative views restrict the life of the citizenry. Lowest score of this section might be even dictatorial regimes.


Not Free: 0-33
These countries are considered not free; generally elections are not in place and civil freedoms are low or non-existant, and property rights might as well be repressed.


Important note: the score calculation should be done directly by the filler, and the result reported at the very end of the questionnaire.
Right-center Constitutional Republic on a (sub)tropical island, with advanced technology and a strong, resilient military.
We strongly believe in secularism, national security and meritocracy.
NS stats are canon, but the first information source are factbooks.
