What is driving Denmark’s tension score
last 30 days- 53 headlines in 30 days — 0.28% of everything the engine read, down on the previous 30 days (108).
- 28% of those were violent (attacks, strikes, casualties) and 30% scored as high-tension stories.
- Conflicts on the roster: none. Denmark 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 Denmark) 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 Denmark 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.
