But of course, there are way more nations of common category than any other.
So actually, is it the case that the "rarest" cards are actually the ones that are most common? Take for example my nation, which is supposedly legendary, but 44 copies are in existence.
Even accounting for commons being frequently trashed, my thinking here is that actually the whole rarity thing is Max's little satire on capitalist culture.
That is, something that is actually less scarce becomes seen as more valuable and scarce because it gets assigned an arbitrary value, and this perpetuates its value.
So a common card like this one...

...actually only has 8 copies in existence, while a rare card like me has 42, so actually it's ME that is the common, and that card that is the rare.

Example, NK lies and says they are democratic and are not, the US lies and says we are free yet we incarcerate millions for a medical plant. See we are basically a larger more populated North Korea.

Still, even if they get junked, the finds are still counted. That "common" card the OP posted had 11 finds, while their "legendary" card had 44 finds.
