How the Conflicts and Political Security Score Is Calculated

The overall score is a weighted average across four indicators. Nomadino calculates: Conflicts and political security score = active conflicts and war risk × 0.40 + political violence × 0.30 + geopolitical risk × 0.20 + terrorism risk × 0.10.

  • Active conflicts and war risk: 40%
  • Political violence: 30%
  • Geopolitical risk: 20%
  • Terrorism risk: 10%

Active conflicts and war risk receive the highest weight because war, civil war or armed conflict can directly affect mobility, supplies, insurance, residency planning and personal safety. Political violence is also weighted strongly because unrest, repression, militias, coup risk and violence against civilians can shape everyday life even without a formally declared war. Geopolitical risk remains an important long-term factor for sanctions, flight links, payments, visas, border exposure and regional escalation. Terrorism risk is weighted lower because it is more narrowly defined, and individual attacks or group activity do not automatically describe a country's broader political-security environment.
