HEAD TO HEAD
Colombia vs Indonesia
Verdict
Indonesia holds a 65–35 advantage over Colombia on the Relative Advantage Index, a clear margin.
The margin is driven by economic size (GDP) (77% of the combined total, $1.4tn) and military spending (51% of the combined total, $15.0bn).
1 factor — nuclear warheads — could not be scored because the figure is unpublished for at least one side. Those factors are excluded and the remaining weights renormalised, never substituted.
