Force Chart: Force Projection

Chart that lists power projection of various different polities and groups.
Originally started by user LRH in January 2007, the list (here) was latter updated in December 2011.
==Force Projection==
The ability of a nation or faction to send out expeditions to implement their policies. This could be both military and non-military expeditions - the range one can send their military forces, policing, or humanitarian aid. It is also an indicator of political power: A nation or group that can transport a sizable amount of their assets without difficulty tends to have great diplomatic clout.
Projection is very often limited to the group's Transport Capabilities - Technology and resources that facilitated such -projection. A nation without FTL travel will not be able to project its forces to the stars, no matter how much territory, money, or military forces they have at their disposal.
==Ranks==
