TEDESI Civilization Index
Made by Alusi
The TEDESI Civilization Index is an index built to rate your people and your nation's society on a pre-defined scale. There are 6 different Ranking Scales that determine your nation's Index Number. There are two outputs your nation receives - Index Number, Rank-Identifier Numbers.
Index number (IN) is the number that gets generated after a mathematical equation is used to find this. The equation uses the Ranks from the Ranking Scales to determine the index number. The range for the index number is from -1 to 1.
- When the IN has reached 1, this means that your nation has achieved almost god-like level citizens and there is a small chance of further growth.
- However, then the IN is -1, this means that your nation's people are at rock bottom, so much so they don't even know what a rock is. This means that there is absolutely no technological advancement, human development (in relation to HDI) and other... err... horrible, horrible things. An IN this low is usually not good because this means that if there was ever any future growth, it would be in the wrong direction.
- If the IN is 0 this means that your nation is growing, however, civilization isn't really that advanced. There is room for growth though!
Rank-Identifier Numbers (RIN) is the number that is generated after each rank is given. This is done after all of the Ranking Scales have been assessed. The Ranking Scales are six different scales, each with their own ranks. Lower, does not mean worse... and neither does higher. The six scales include:
- Technology (the amount of technology being used)
- Development (the amount of technology, ideas, methods, etc being created/invented/found)
- Education (The knowledge and intellectual capabilities of the civilization as a whole)
- Spirituality (The amount/part of society that believes in a region and how much influence it has on daily life)
- Influence (How much of an impact the civilization has on surrounding civilizations/groups)
- Economy (The productivity and economic output of a society)
But for now, lets move on to the next step.
