ℹ️ Understanding the Political Stability Score
Source: World Bank Worldwide Governance Indicators (WGI) — 2025 Revision (Kaufmann & Kraay, 2024 Update, last updated November 2024). The indicator is officially titled "Political Stability and Absence of Violence/Terrorism" — not democratic strength.
Active democracies with frequent elections, protests and public debate may score lower as these are sometimes classified as "social unrest." Scores also rely on perception-based surveys from global business-risk consultancies and think tanks, which can sometimes carry specific institutional biases compared to objective, which may not reflect ground reality. Use this as one signal among many, not as a definitive verdict on a country's governance and stability.
