This index measures update coverage, not national stability, threat level, or government performance. It uses the 100 newest public KBA13.COM posts and matches country names plus strategic-dimension keywords in article titles and excerpts.

• 45% Freshness: time-decay score, reaching zero after 120 days.
• 35% Dimension coverage: share of Security, Political, Economic, and Maritime dimensions represented.
• 20% Evidence volume: number of matched KBA13 items, capped to prevent quantity dominating quality.

Dimension scores show freshness and volume of supporting updates. Every score links back to visible KBA13 evidence. Scores are heuristic and should be reviewed by a human analyst before consequential use.
