Ordinal Data Map

http://vmrhudson.org/socic.html

Ordinal data maps like the one above are ranked into groups using qualitative rather than quantitative units. This ordinal data map ranks states of concern to the international community from "has almost never violated economic or political norms and has not violated use-of-force norms" to "has frequently and egregiously violated use-of-force norms and economic/or political norms" by using a range of colors depending on the severity of concern for the state. The data for this map is ranked according to relative measures without the inclusion of numerical data.
