Mandate before alignment
Describe what an institution is authorized and incentivized to do before assigning narrative meaning.
Global game-design translation
Turn institutions into systems,
not stereotypes.
A safe game-design translation of direction, collection, processing, analysis, dissemination, counterintelligence, and institutional friction across different legal and political settings.
Comparative lens
Compare institutions,
not civilizations.
Every profile uses the same dimensions and records where public evidence is incomplete, contested, dated, or inaccessible. Formal law and practical authority are kept separate.
Formal and practical power
Show constitutional or statutory chains separately from credibly assessed real influence.
Equal evidence burden
Apply the same sourcing, confidence, contradiction, and correction rules to every jurisdiction.
Rights and affected people
Include oversight, due process, privacy, labor, minority, diaspora, disability, and civilian impacts.
Time-stamped uncertainty
Date current-status claims and mark unknown, disputed, inaccessible, or rapidly changing information.
No national moral typecasting
States, institutions, officials, communities, and individual characters are not interchangeable.
Country coverage
Every country belongs in the roadmap.
Listing a country is a commitment to fair future coverage, not a claim that a dedicated profile is complete. Regional baselines guide the next research cycle.

Editorial commitment
Fairness is a process,
not a slogan.
Mechanics should express institutional incentives, information limits, law, oversight, coordination, and consequences. They must not encode nationalities as fixed bonuses, penalties, loyalties, competence levels, or moral alignments.
