World Chaos Map
A clear, honest picture of what is happening around the world, updated as it happens.
Every country gets a score from 0 to 100 based on what the news actually reports: deaths, arrests, airstrikes, curfews. Not on how much a country is talked about. Sudden crises surface by comparing each country with its own recent history, and events are placed where they happen.
