MBA · 66/100 — La note Magna est notre composite 0–100 de la puissance nationale structurelle — cinq dimensions, plus de 100 indicateurs. C'est l'évaluation propre du Bureau, pas un miroir des chiffres de la Banque mondiale ou de la CIA.
Momentum 0 — Momentum trimestriel : la lecture du Bureau sur la trajectoire du pays au dernier trimestre, de −10 (dégradation rapide) à +10 (accélération).
Juillet-septembre 2026 est passé sans laisser de trace sur la trajectoire du pays. La continuité, pas le changement, est l'histoire.
Pour un État petit ou moyen, c'est souvent le bon résultat : aucun choc à absorber, aucune crise à gérer.
