Reference method: This visualizer uses a hard-coded composite baseline table built from public source families, then applies deterministic formulas to estimate each selected decade from 1940 to 2070. The embedded rows are scenario-planning inputs, not live API data and not official IDRN rankings.
Population and births are shaped from UN WPP-style demographic baselines and growth assumptions. Disaster counts and damage are adjusted from EM-DAT/CRED, UNDRR, and national loss-record source families to reflect recent reporting, undercount risk, exposure, and climate-pressure assumptions. Financial values use PPP-style capacity proxies and constant present-day dollar logic so countries can be compared by relative ability to absorb shocks, not by inflation-driven future nominal dollars.
Assumption note: Historical values before broad modern coverage and future values after the latest observed period are modeled. The data is intended to provoke planning discussion and improve through review; we welcome corrections, stronger source tables, and alternate scenario assumptions.
