African Powers Ranked by Military Strength Ranking 2017

For centuries, the African continent has been beset with fighting, political upheaval and oppression.

 The GFP list makes use of over 50 factors in our in-house formula to determine a given nation's Power Index ('PwrIndx') score. This provides the final ranking while also allowing smaller, more technologically-advanced, nations to compete with larger, lesser-developed ones. Some bonuses and penalties are added for refinement that, in the end, we hope presents an unbiased look into the potential conventional military strength of a world power.

For 2017 there are a total of 33 countries included in this listing.

10 Best African Countries for Doing Business

The Doing Business index is a ranking index system, created by the World Bank Group, which indicates the regularity environment of businesses.  A higher ranking, which is indicated by a lower numerical value, specifies a stronger protection of property rights, and visa versa.
The World Bank has annually been measuring the quality of worldwide business environments, for the past fifteen years, with its Doing Business ranking system.  Over 190 economies have been scrutinized on criteria including:  electrification and ease of business creation, the tax burden and the protection of property rights.
Doing Business measures regulations of the labour market (which has not been included in this year’s ranking) and for eleven areas in the life cycle of a business.  Ten of these areas have been included in this year’s ranking on the “ease of doing business”.  They are:
  • Starting a business.
  • Obtaining a building permit.
  • Connecting to electricity.
  • Transferring ownership.
  • Getting credits.
  • Protecting minority investors.
  • Payment of taxes.
  • Cross-border trading.
  • Enforcing contracts.
  • Resolving insolvency.

Following this criteria here are the top ten African economies, as ranked in the 2018 Doing Business report.
