Two completely unrelated game changes I'd like to see:
1. It'd be very neat if the nation's GDP was listed. There's already data on government support of businesses and economy, as well as population. This should be relatively easy to do based on that information. In fact there's already formulas by various nations for doing this. I'd like to see this integrated into the game because (a) it's just plain cool, (b) having more data available it could be more accurate, and (c) it would be a great definitive (different from a possibly disputed nation's formula) reference for RPers.
2. UN rankings currently depend almost exclusively on population which is most clear on the world page where the top 10 are almost always all in the billion range and usually feature FeministBioengineering, Sketch, Yucaztlan, Evil cookies, and Bushytails. I'd like to see this change so any sized nation has an equal chance at the top except for UN rankings that are specifically affected by population. I personally have 1.3 billion so in the current system I have more of a shot than most others, which (a) proves my impartiality and (b) just isn't right.
