World — 211 countries

Every country the World Bank tracks, mapped on the atlas plate below by population, income, urbanization, age structure, and life expectancy. Rank and compare the World Bank, OWID, and UNDP indicators behind the atlas. This data updates annually rather than from ongoing polling, so there's no separate forecast or live-tracking view here the way the US atlas has.

How this works

It's a data instrument, not a poll. Figures here come from World Bank Open Data (population, GDP, urbanization, age structure, life expectancy), plus Our World in Data (V-Dem democracy, happiness) and UNDP (HDI) where noted in the rankings. Same backbone as the World Simulate atlas. Country-level synthetic opinion is separate — richer per-country attitude data is still the next phase.
