It might be fun if there was a world fact section.

What Nation / Region is the oldest / newest ?

What Nation / Region has the largest / smallest population?

How many Nations are currently considerd a paticulr UN catigory?

A place we could look up were a Nation / Region stands in any ranking at any paticular time. Instead of having to wait until it was posted again.

Stuff like that. what do you all think

Due to the way the game is coded, this isn't something that can easily be done. Our tech admin used to post surveys and stats like this, but he hasn't done one in a good half-year. Theoretically one could write programs to take the data from the servers and analyze it, but it would take a long time and the server isn't particularly stable.

As far as I'm aware, it's impractical to make an analysis like this availible on any sort of regular basis. I could be wrong, of course.....

Oldest still-living nation is Last Hope. Oldest region is The South Pacific.
Largest nation is Josifovich (thanks to the pop-bug). Largest region bounces between the Pacifics. Europe is the largest player-created region, and probably the oldest.

I think the oldest player-created region is Alcatraz actually.
