Every story the engine read that names Czechia, its capital or its leaders. Links go to the original outlet; the badge is the engine’s own 0–100 tension weight. This list is what moves the number above.

What is driving Czechia’s tension score

last 30 days
  • 29 headlines in 30 days — 0.15% of everything the engine read, up sharply on the previous 30 days (14).
  • 14% of those were violent (attacks, strikes, casualties) and 17% scored as high-tension stories.
  • Conflicts on the roster: none. Czechia is not a party to any conflict our engine tracks right now.
  • Region: Europe reads 53 today; it carries 15% of this score.

Read it like this. Attention (how much the world is talking about Czechia) is the biggest input at 30%. Violence and high-tension share tell you what kind of talk it is. A country can be loud and calm — an election, a summit — or quiet and dangerous. The mix is the point.

How the Czechia score is built

Five inputs, fixed weights. Attention 30% (share of world coverage), violence 25% and high-tension share 15% (what kind of coverage), roster conflicts 15%, and the Europe region score 15%. A momentum nudge (+6 / −4) rewards a country whose coverage is accelerating or fading.

Same physics as the world score. The number rises 85% of the way to its new level at once and falls no faster than 3 points a day — fear arrives fast and leaves slowly.

No third-party index inside. Every count comes from the 41 public news feeds our engine reads itself; the full method is on the methodology page. Data is free under CC BY 4.0 via the API.
