This article is intended to help those understanding information about global and local issues such as atomic arms stckpiles, economic growth in China,  starvation in Africa, the internet being blocked in Russia and trade blocs.

Types of government


Internationally defined types of government. Note: Currently there are no militarily dictatorships, but Thailand is a de facto one.



Monarchies in red and republics in blue. Malaysia's king is an elected elder statesman.

Authoritarian regimes


Authoritarian regimes. The UK media regard Uzbekistan as at the bad end of the authoritarian scale and Kazakhstan at the good end of the scale. Examples of such regimes-, , , , , and.



Fully elected democracies. According to the UK, French and USA media that systems in Kazakhstan and S. Africa'sis not really democratic since the polling has an inherent bias to the ANC and Nur Otan (most TV campaigning time is given to them and so on). According to the UK, Irish, Polish, French and USA media Russia was never really a democracy since it regularly jails political opponents and beats up anti-government voters. According to the UK, French and Italian press ballot stuffing, tampered with voting machines and beating up anti-government voters became the trend in parts of the UK, USA, Kazakhstan and Spain since circa 2005.

There are frequent reports in European, Australian, NZ and North American papers of ballot stuffing, stolen ballot boxes, violence towards opposition voters and tampered voting machines in Ukraine, Brazil, Mexico, India, Pakistan, Kenya Romania, Albania, Belorussian, Thailand, PNG and Indonesia. Democracy is dead in the USA according to UK and EU media as both the Democrats and the Republicans hog the limelight, bribe electoral officials, beat up Green party and Libertine members, role in cash and rig the ballot.

Press freedom


Official press freedom levels. Syria's press was always loyal to the Assad regime, but the civil-war has lead to even stricter rules. It dose cover the state, firms and individuals wanting to cover up scandals like pedophilia rings, but it dose not include the illegal shootings of libelous cartoonists who mock Mohamed or the British goverment's atempts to wind down and eventualy sell of the BBC.

Unemployment


The % who are jobless. By what I have witnessed and have gathered from friends and online friends it is nothing like the British, Greek, Russian, Spanish, Bosnian and American governments say. Russia, Bosnia and America are noticeably worse in places, the UK has only a few places outside the Conservative Part's hart-lands not in utter destitution, while Spain and Greece are in total societal collapse. The British TV documentary Panorama claimed the streets of Stockport, Middlesbough and Bristol are choked with jobless, penniless, sometimes homeless and often starving wretches, who live only on charitable food donations and pay day loans.

419 scams


419 scams are a type of fraud and one of the most common types of confidence trick. The scam typically involves promising the victim a significant share of a large sum of money, which the fraudster requires a small up-front payment to obtain. If a victim makes the payment, the fraudster either invents a series of further fees for the victim, or simply disappears. The number "419" refers to the article of the Nigerian Criminal Code dealing with fraud.

Kernel stripping programming devices


In computing, the kernel is a computer program that manages input/output requests from software, and translates them into data processing instructions for the central processing unit and other electronic components of a computer. The kernel is a fundamental part of a modern computer's operating system. For computer programmers, the kernel's interface is a low-level abstraction layer. Kernel stripping devices are a form of malwear that deletes the Kernel.

Because of its critical nature, the kernel code is usually loaded into a protected area of memory, which prevents it from being overwritten by other, less frequently used parts of the operating system or by application programs. The kernel performs its tasks, such as executing processes and handling interrupts, in kernel space, whereas everything a user normally does, such as writing text in a text editor or running programs in a GUI (graphical user interface), is done in user space. This separation is made in order to prevent user data and kernel data from interfering with each other and thereby diminishing performance or causing the system to become unstable (and possibly crashing). []

The map is derived from recent UK, Aussie and Indian media sites.

Starvation


The % who are starving according to the UN's definition of 'starving'. By what I have witnessed and have gathered from friends and online friends it is nothing like the British, Greek, Russian, Spanish, Bosnian and American governments say. Russia, Bosnia and America are noticeably worse in places, the UK has only a few places outside the Conservative Party's hart-lands not in utter destitution, while Spain and Greece are in total societal collapse. The British TV documentary Panorama claimed the streets of Stockport, Middlesbough and Bristol are choked with jobless, penniless, sometimes homeless and often starving wretches, who live only on charitable food donations and pay day loans.

Hospital beads per 1,000 people


Hospital beads per 1,000 people. UK figures are nothing like the official ones, it's horrific. 25% of nurses are foreign imports and many GPs are locums. The government has closed down several hospitals, shut many more wards and slashed staffing numbers. The only two things they care about are money and eventually selling it off. ,, , and.

Life expectancy at birth


Life expectancy at birth in 2012. War, civil war, AIDS, poverty and violent crime ruins figures for places like Afghanistan, Colombia, S. Africa and Somalia. Counter to what the politicians, officials and experts say; the USA, Russia, UK, Greece, Spain and Ukraine also suffer badly with obesity, cancer, AIDS, poverty and violent crime, which ruins unofficial figures. To find the truth cut about 5 to 10 years off the official figures on the map for the USA, Russia, UK, Greece, Spain and Ukraine.

Poverty.


A CIA World Factbook-based map showing the percentage of population by country living below that country's official poverty line. By what I have witnessed and have gathered from friends and online friends it is nothing like the British, Greek, Russian, Spanish, Bosnian and American governments say. Russia, Bosnia and America are noticeably worse in places, the UK has only a few places outside the Conservative Part's hart-lands not in utter destitution, while Spain and Greece are in total societal collapse. The British TV documentary Panorama claimed the streets of Stockport, Middlesbough and Bristol are choked with jobless, penniless, sometimes homeless and often starving wretches, who live only on charitable food donations and pay day loans.

Child Labour


Incidence rates for child labour worldwide in 10-14 age group, in 2003, per World Bank data.The data is incomplete, as many countries do not collect or report child labour data (colored gray). The color code is as follows: yellow (<10% of children working), green (10–20%), orange (20–30%), red (30–40%) and black (>40%). Some nations such as Guinea-Bissau, Mali and Ethiopia have more than half of all children aged 5–14 at work to make ends meet.

Chances of treading on a anti-personnel mine


English: A schematic showing the countries with more than 100 victims of land-mines recorded between 1999 and 2010. The map uses data from International Campaign To Ban Land-mines - Cluster Munition Coalition. It was made based on the map shown in National geographic magazine January 2012, see http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2012/01/landmines/jenkins-text Dark red = very high number of casualties and fatalities Light red = high number of casualties and fatalities Yellow = moderate number of casualties and fatalities Note though that depending on the color and the size of the country, the mine-density and probability rate of actually encountering/stepping on a mine varies. For example, Russia has a moderate amount of victims, yet the country is very large; hence a country like Albania, Burundi or Rwanda actually has a much higher probability rate of encountering/stepping on a mine.

Number of people in jail


By what I hear Thailand, Russia and the USA like jailing a lot of foreigners, whilst Cuba, Russia, Thailand, Belarus, Turkmenistan, Venezuela, Pakistan, USA, Israel and especially N. Korea have a lot of political prisoners. Teenage gags runied El Salvador's slums in the 2000's.
