These Are the World’s Most Influential Countries

[Abingdonboy]

I think we should revisit the evaluation criteria and might get the answer to many questions asked here by many including me

All intangibles, by any objective empirical metric these rankings are a joke.

Then in that case we are suspecting the credibility of BI UK. But again we really do not know what weightage was assigned to each evaluated category. But does such rankings really affect any country...I dont think so.

Its more like a survey rather than just an opinion

• The media organisation evaluated 80 countries across a range of criteria, including cultural history, citizenship, and quality of life.
  
  Another key measure was "power," which determined how economically and politically influential a country was and weighed the strength of its international alliances and military.

More than 21,000 business leaders, informed elites, and general citizens were surveyed with the goal of discovering how nations are perceived on a global scale.
