Thailand is green even though it is ruled by a king but Vietnam is red.
Britain, Spain and Sweden are also marked as democracies, despite being monarchies
The Falklands and Georgia (the island next door) are red though.
Apparently the Falkland Islands suddenly became independent /j
Same with Denmark
The more red the more white man’s burden.
They colored Taiwan differently than mainland China lol. Also bothered to put red dots to mark Andorra and Monaco, but not Vatican City
How tf are Australia, Canada, Scotland, South Korea, Wales, Northern Ireland, and New Zealand full democracies? For want of a better word that unites them all, these are literally occupied territories.
Edit: typo.
these are literally occupied
For them democracy is just when imperialism

Ukraine - hybrid regime.
Full democracy in Canada my ass. If it was, First Past The Post wouldn’t be a ducking thing.
In The Netherlands our last 4 governments had to step down due to scandals only to be replaced by… the exact same president and government. Who are now doing dumb neolib shit again. Such a great functioning democracy.

The rigged measurement with the wrong coding of countries on the democracy index is that reason why they have conflicting evidence on whether “democracy” is better for economic development.
The countries in Asia that are green and yellow, are the ones that will soon be marked red, because colour revolutions will never succeed there. Except Indonesia, because things are truly fucked up there.
Also just invert colours in an image editor for truth lol
