Northudankton Stability and Safety Index

The Northudankton Stability and Safety Index (NSSI) is a safety ranking system developed for the micronation of Northudankton. It serves as a structured scale ranging from 0 to 10, designed to monitor and communicate the current levels of security and stability within the nation. The index provides specific criteria and suggested actions, both for government authorities and citizens, based on the prevailing security conditions.

Overview

The NSSI was established on 15 April 2024 by the Northudankton Ministry of Defense and the Northudankton Ministry of the Interior to give residents and visitors of Northudankton clear, at-a-glance information about the country’s safety and stability status. This system aids in the preparedness and response strategies to varying security situations. The index ranges from 10, representing optimal stability and safety, down to 0, indicative of critical instability. The current NSSI is available to the public on the Northudankton website's home page.
