I. Power Distribution
Total Power (Ptot) is the aggregate of a state's functional resources, quantified through real-time data ingestion. It is defined as the sum of Metabolic (internal stability) and Discretionary (external projection) resources:
The DYNAM engine calculates these values by mapping standardized indicators from the World Bank API to systemic proxies defined in the internal configuration:
- Pmet (Metabolic Power): These are resources "locked" into the state’s internal maintenance. It is derived from economic scale (GDP) and population size. High metabolic power is not necessarily a strength; it represents the "fatigue buffer"—the minimum energy required to prevent systemic collapse or social unrest.
- Pdis (Discretionary Power): Derived from external-facing capabilities. This includes military expenditure, total reserves, and AI preparedness.
DYNAM transforms above rules into Autonomy.
