(These books were made for travelling, and that’s jus what we’ll do..)

These are the brand new rankings for the passport index — every year, they have these annual ratings, and this year, Germany was the top ranked passport.

Comparing a side-by-side on all the Visa-Free admittances that admits the passports into the countries listed on the left column (cropped in the image), to find a proper sequence on why they were listed on the power rank.

A Side-by-side comparative with Germany, Denmark, Austria, & USA. (2017)

Tier 2: Denmark, Singapore, Sweden, Finland, Italy, France, Spain.

Since the late 80s, travel is considered the great democratic frontier that will break our modes of seeing people in their bad light (the russians are coming!) and (at least in my mind), break boring prejudice and become at last more rounded with the broader knowledge — to help us in allaying fears that form our opinions of ourselves, and others — the knowledge that used to belong to just the well-heeled, and schooled are now attained with the gusto of travel.

Tier 3: Luxembourg, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Portugal, Norway, UK.

Like, I wonder if the exceptional G6 has any luck in proceeding in the power grids, as well as being part of the extra special developing BRICS?

Tier 4: Switzerland, South Korea, Japan, Ireland, USA, Canada.

All the countries are actually closely ranked - but i think a country or two of non-admittance makes all the difference when it comes to getting in a tier/ grouping. Overall, it denotes the broad siring of mutual agreements - and what diplomacy calls . The top countries are now climbing the circles of trust. Citizenry, as well as in foreign policy modes. Always a good sign.

Technologically speaking, there are factors to be considered, and like any real diplomatic agency it is always achieved with a win-win in mind, and unlike international pageantry, will never want to field nagging economic questions with having only the (developed)-world peace in mind.
