match_countries Countries closest to a 12 Axes result
The ten countries closest to a result, and the site's countries page set to it. Give twelve scores (0-100, each the percent of the axis' first pole, in this order: a Federal–Unitary, b Democratic–Autocratic, c Internationalism–Nationalism, d Militarist–Pacifist, e Security–Freedom, f Collectivize–Privatize, g Irreligious–Religious, h Progressive–Traditional, i Assimilationist–Multiculturalist, j Planned–Markets, k Isolationism–Globalism, l Acceleration–Bioconservative) or a share code or passport link from the site.

Things to ask

  • Give me the 12 Axes Test, the short version.
  • Which countries are closest to my 12 Axes result? Here is my passport link: …
  • Where does Brazil sit on the 12 axes, and why?
  • How close is social democracy to Abraham Lincoln on the 12 axes?

What it keeps

Nothing. The assistant sends your answers to be scored; the server works the result out in that one request and forgets it. No answer, score or IP address is stored, and the result is not added to the site's anonymous results.

Against abuse, requests are counted under a one-way hash of the address they come from: 30 a minute each, and a daily cap for each Cloudflare data centre. Full details are on the privacy page.

What you tell the assistant is covered by the assistant's own terms.

The same test as on this site

The statements, the scoring and the matches are the ones the site's own test uses: the 36, 60 and 288-statement versions, the twelve scores, the closest countries, figures and ideologies. The positions of countries and figures are our own estimates from public sources, each with the reason on its page.
