I suspect Influence was a factor here.
You have an extremely low absolute (58) and relative (hatchling) Influence rating. Now I didn't do an analysis of nations at the rare, ultra rare or epic levels because there are so many of them, but at the Legendary level I only found a handful of nations with Legendary cards that were not WA Members/Delegates, Moderators, Administrators or Editors of some sort, recognized otherwise by the WA or having completed Easter Eggs. Every single one of those type nations had Superpower or higher level of influence with absolute levels in the upper thousands/10,000
Maybe there is other data here, but I suspect that may have been a factor as to why you were a rare instead of something higher. A similar nation with no other accolades but a moderate level of influence only would have been bumped up to Ultra Rare so its not like you were one component away from Legendary I would suspect
Actually, I have a counter theory. I propose that card rarity has to do with the amount of posts you've made on the forums.

We're not going to change how nations Cease To Exist (CTE). It will remain 28 days of inactivity, 60 days in vacation mode. You may be talking about nation name re-use. There's a topic on that in Technical, which is also where you should suggest changes. Not that they're likely at this point - we're pretty happy with the current profile.
Frisbeeteria wrote:You can buy ex-nation cards if they exist in player decks. You'd simply have to browse other players' decks. There is no way to look up an Ex-nation card any other way. I suppose we could add something to the Boneyard, but I'd be against it. CTE nations should not be a factor. This is a game for existing nations.
Frisbeeteria wrote:This is unlikely to be true in any future round. It was broadly disliked. What's more likely is that cards for nations that are drawn and then CTE, once drawn, will remain until Junked. However, you won't be drawing ex-nation cards. They'll most likely be filtered out of lootboxes.

That and from a technical aspect I don't think an ex-nation could be ranked rarity-wise without some sort of update. Even if you only use nations currently blocked by name release rules, it's still gotta be an enormous number of ex-nations to update.

So, I suppose it's safe to say that the Max-announced "one week of no trading", for the trading card game, is likely to go a lot longer than the one now-completed week. Trading may not start up again for while, eh?

The card game that existed during April Fools was very fun but likely requires (and also desires by way of feedback) many tweaks to make it more future-proof and enjoyable for a timeperiod longer than one week.
