Worldwide intelligence role-playing framework

A worldwide game needs
a worldwide point of view.

Explore the IARPG international intelligence atlas: 195-country coverage commitments, 260 archival world-context profiles, regional and dedicated baseline research, multinational systems, rights-aware methodology, and internationally adaptable game mechanics.

Direct answer

How does IARPG cover countries and international institutions fairly?

The atlas uses one comparative method across all countries while preserving local context. It separates formal law from practical authority, distinguishes institutions from populations and individuals, records uncertainty and source limits, includes rights and oversight, seeks local and local-language perspectives, and never treats nationality or culture as permanent moral alignment.

Coverage commitment
195 countries and jurisdictions
Dedicated baselines

Uncertainty and supersession remain visible

Context before alignment

The atlas now explains
the places behind the relationships.

A 32,594-row archival Factbook snapshot adds geography, people, institutions, economy, infrastructure, and environmental context for 260 source entities while mapping source coverage to all 195 countries in the roadmap.

The World Context Explorer is not a live country assessment. It keeps field-specific dates, source-code collisions, missing values, territories, supranational records, and recognition limits visible. It calculates no development, loyalty, morality, dangerousness, or threat score.

260 PROFILES

Countries, territories, regions, oceans, and institutions

Entity classes remain explicit instead of being flattened into one sovereignty category.

6 LENSES

One place needs more than one metric

Geography, people, institutions, economy, infrastructure, and environment stay side by side.

195 / 195

Every roadmap country has source context

Coverage does not imply a finished local profile or current verification.

ARCHIVAL

Every field keeps its own time boundary

A 2025 collection contains statistics from different estimate years and cannot stand in for a current source review.

From archival orientation to current proposal

Build the profile
claim by claim.

The Country Context Composer keeps dated context, current observations, analyst assumptions, and fictional gameplay translations in separate layers.

A proposal cannot pass its structural publication gate without uncertainty, rights, oversight, affected-community context, correction history, and at least one non-external perspective. Passing the gate does not verify the facts; it makes the evidence burden reviewable.

4 LAYERS

Do not blend evidence and inference

Archive, current claims, assumptions, and fictional translations remain structurally distinct.

CLAIM LEVEL

Carry source metadata with the sentence

Dates, identity, type, scope, confidence, perspective, language, and review state are required.

FAIL CLOSED

Publication readiness has conditions

Missing rights, oversight, uncertainty, communities, corrections, or local perspective blocks the gate.

NO SCORE

Fairness checks the method

Uneven tone and evidence burden create editorial findings—not country rankings.

International fairness covenant

No country is a permanent hero,
villain, threat, or backdrop.

IARPG compares institutions through the same questions while respecting different histories, legal systems, languages, communities, and evidentiary conditions.

The site separates governments from populations; institutions from individual characters; formal law from practical power; capability from intent; historical record from current status; and sourced fact from analytical assessment. Every country belongs in the long-term coverage roadmap.

EVIDENCE

One threshold across jurisdictions

Claims carry sources, verification dates, confidence, contradictions, and explicit limitations.

RIGHTS

People affected by institutions matter

Oversight, due process, privacy, labor, minority, gender, disability, diaspora, and civilian impacts stay visible.

IDENTITY

Nationality is not a personality system

Characters receive individual biography, relationships, class, language, values, routines, and conflicting affiliations.

CORRECTION

Uncertainty can be revised

Contested and inaccessible information is marked; later evidence may supersede earlier assessments.

Alignment without bloc mythology

Who aligns with whom
depends on the question.

Formal allies may disagree; rivals may deconflict; nonaligned states may cooperate with competing blocs; small states may broker access; and economic, intelligence, technology, humanitarian, and security relationships may point in different directions at the same time.

RELATIONSHIP

Name the actual connection

Treaty ally, collective-defense member, strategic partner, intelligence liaison, infrastructure partner, intermediary, patron, sponsored-but-autonomous actor, deconfliction channel, or disputed claim.

DOMAIN

State where it applies

Trade cooperation does not imply defense integration. A relief corridor does not establish political alignment. One relationship can be deep in one domain and absent in another.

EVIDENCE

Separate declaration from practice

Record the formal instrument, observable cooperation, disagreement, limitations, confidence, last verification, and alternative explanations.

FAIRNESS

Apply one burden to every actor

Allies and rivals, large and small states, governments and non-state actors receive the same sourcing, rights, oversight, uncertainty, and affected-community questions.

Research boundary: the real-world source reports are preserved and reviewed with limitations. Current actor memberships, laws, commitments, institutions, and relationships require fresh dated verification before publication as present fact.

Coverage maturity

Coverage is transparent,
not overstated.

The preserved research establishes eleven dedicated jurisdiction baselines, multiple regional and multinational baselines, and a research roadmap for every country. The newest 94-file collection repeats several baselines as exact duplicate evidence and adds portal, mechanics, NPC, hospital, economy, and technical research. Its 30 unique reports now carry 167 claim-level dispositions under the same equal-evidence standard. A listing or reviewed synthesis means “included, bounded, and owed fair treatment,” not “finished forever.”

DEDICATED BASELINE

11 jurisdiction profiles

China, Holy See/Vatican City, India, Iran, North Korea, Pakistan, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Türkiye, Ukraine, and the United States.

REGIONAL BASELINE

195 country commitments

Every country is assigned a regional starting point and the same future profile requirements.

CROSS-REGIONAL

Overlapping systems

MENA, Eurasia, Southeast Asia, East Asia/Oceania, small states, and multinational architectures.

OPEN WORK

Local-source expansion

Future cycles should add local-language sources, country experts, affected communities, and correction records.

Latest collection context

Saudi Arabia is one baseline.
The archive is much broader.

The latest container includes a dedicated Saudi intelligence and security report alongside other country profiles, regional methods, game mechanics, portal audits, and technical research.

The container title is retained for provenance only. Each member keeps its own subject, checksum, review state, and canonical route. This prevents accidental national typecasting and makes duplicate evidence visible without claiming that repeated files are new research.

COUNTRY EVIDENCE

Dedicated baselines stay jurisdiction-specific

Country profiles are evaluated with the same law, practice, oversight, rights, uncertainty, and affected-community questions.

PROVENANCE

Archive names do not redefine member scope

Portal, NPC, hospital, economy, and technical reports retain their own titles and subjects.

DEDUPLICATION

Repeated files strengthen lineage

Sixty-four exact duplicates map to existing canonical bodies rather than creating false novelty.

CLAIM REVIEW

Thirty reviewed syntheses

Current reuse is limited to 167 explicit dispositions. Archived source prose remains visible for provenance but cannot silently become present fact.

Long-term expansion

All countries.
Equal editorial dignity.

Future country profiles must use a common template: constitutional and legal setting; formal and practical authority; agency boundaries; oversight and rights; reforms; multinational relationships; public evidence limits; affected communities; cultural and linguistic review; game-design translation; and dated correction history.

Country analysis beyond the baseline

Context does not determine alignment.

A current country profile should separately examine formal and practical authority, domestic coalitions, regional organizations, domain-specific dependencies, evidence quality, affected communities, and conditional crisis effects. Small-state agency and nonalignment are active strategies, not analytical blanks.

AUTHORITY

Who can decide or block?

Separate law, implementation, informal influence, oversight, remedy, and legitimacy.

COALITIONS

Who inside disagrees?

Name institutions and constituencies instead of assigning one national opinion.

DEPENDENCIES

What creates options or constraints?

Separate financing, ownership, operation, concentration, substitution, and recovery.

EVIDENCE

What is known and how?

Keep sources, claims, credibility, confidence, dissent, and correction visible.
