Announcement: Statistics Update

[Severyane]

Please be aware that the Directorate has recently reviewed and updated the SMTRP Data Tracker. Areas and population densities for most states have been made available under the Extended tab. If you have a value and it is not crossed out, then there is a 96% probably it is final and may be used. For those that are missing, I'll make an effort to get provide them within the next few days as the first Statistics update will most likely occur within the 1569 year (read: soon).

Additionally, many population and GDPpcs have been modified slightly or largely. Some of the larger changes have been noted with comments, though not all the changes were. There were too many of 'em for the Directorate to bother leaving a comment in each. It may be possible to note the changes by looking at the Directorate Notes, though not all countries were left notes. Regardless, the changes were made in effort to better "harmonize" neighbors in both population density and Gross Domestic Product per capita. If you would like to contest the change, PM Ayzek.

Also, as a note: those of you with distant overseas territories: you are permitted to add these territories to the spreadsheets near the bottom. More accurately: Ayzek will most likely add the name there when he calculates the area. You may preempt him. This is only for those that have coordinated their overseas territories with him. As you can't really get overseas territories without doing so.

Finally, Hadash: additional information (read: official name and capital and largest cities) is missing for your two states. Please provide that information.

PS: Keep in mind that this information [the one in the spreadsheets, which is what the Directorate intends to use for Directorate stuff and things] should all be in one language: OOC English. Please maintain this. As cool as I'm sure your language is, the international community probably knows your capital by it's name in the lingua franca. ICly, this is Lanlian. OOCly, it's English.

Statistics will be updated twice-ish by this weekend. Please review your modifiers here before then. Ideally today, cause I'ma probably do it tomorrow. #Whoops

Edit: FYI, all non-(sovereign) state entities will be removed. Any such statistics that were tracked on the spreadsheet will be merged into its sovereign country. At a later time, I'll create a page that'll enable you lot to break down your state's statistics per-state/province/vassal/whatever.

Statistics have been updated for 1581. Check it out here. Additionally, Statistics will soon be updated for year 1582. You may review your growth figures on the update update page. Please note: year-to-year births, deaths, and migrants shouldn't fluctuate to heavily, so you're encouraged to work off the values already there.

Additionally, keep in mind the Directorate can and may edit your proposed figures.

Esteemed statistical administrator, thank you for the yearly compilation of national statistics and figures. However, the Mandate must raise an issue of incorrect information. The growth rate for the Vestor Licit People's Mandate and the Licit Chiri Mandate is recorded as negative, with births low. In fact, the birth rate in MANINTERN nations is quite high. Citizenship is attained at 16 and many citizens apply for their familial pairing in the next three or four years after their first uptiering[1]. As the average grandfather in the MANINTERN is 55, we expect the growth rate to be quite high as a new Vestian or Chiri generation is born every 20 or 21 years.

There was an error in the previous calculations. The file responsible has been deserviced. More appropriate modifiers have been issued.

Esteemed statistical administrator, you have the thanks of the Mandate International for rectifying these statistics. Of special praise is the accurate assessment that the Vestor Licit People's Mandate has negative migration, for they are easily the most inferior of Mandate states and migrate primarily to Chiri and elsewhere to escape their many failures.
