Motivated to measure a country's stability quantitatively and more accurately, our team
builds a mathematical framework to identify the current status of a country. In the paper, we
introduce a composite index processing comprehensive datasets that consist of di erent factors
including economy, politics, demographics and climate change.
With the composite measure, we build a dynamic system simulating the uctuation of the
market as a result of the variations in di erent sectors. This system not only describes the current
fragility of a country facing potential alternation in social and environmental factors, but also it
predicts the equilibrium states that the country would approach overtime.
Moreover, we propose a bifurcation plot that depicts the tipping points between three states
of a country in terms of its fragility: stable state, vulnerable state, and fragile state. We then
further apply our model and bifurcation plot in real-life case analyses with three selected
countries, Syria, Cuba and New Zealand.
After calibrating parameters and comparing di erent factors in each country, we nd out that
climate conditions play a signi cant role in Syria's fragile state due to factors such as limited
water resources and food supply. We also nd that factors of droughts and occurrence of natural
disasters in Cuba caused huge market losses and Cuba would reach the tipping point under
appropriate human intervention.

1 Introduction
Climate change includes increased droughts, shrinking glaciers, temperature rise and sea
level rise. Despite a scienti c consensus on global warming, climate change denial and doubts
still exist and the impacts of climate change and the extent to which it is caused by humans are
suspected. In our paper, we build a mathematical framework to determine a country's fragility
with a composite measure considering multiple factors including economic, political and
demographic indicators and climate change. In section 6, we select three countries, Syria, Cuba
and New Zealand to do case studies and further analyze the idea of tipping points in the speci c
contexts. In section 7, we examine the e ects of human intervention and estimate the total cost of
intervention based on our model and research. In section 8, we discuss our limitations and
strengths, consider the scenarios for smaller \states" and larger \states", and talk about potential
future research on this topic and our framework.
2 Assumptions
Our framework measures the market impacts of di erent factors such as climate change,
economic status, political stability and demographic pro les in the unit of US dollars
because we think it is more e cient to quantify and examine the extent of e ects.
We de ne the state as a country for consistency and data collection purpose.
We assume all data we obtain are trustworthy since all of sources are reliable. Thus, we are
con dent that our metrics can re ect the accurate condition.
3 Framework
3.1 De ning Fragility
Before devising our model, we rst de ne three possible states of a country: stable state,
vulnerable state, and fragile state.
Stable state A stable country should be less likely to be in uenced by the incidents such as
economic downturns, natural disasters, or political instability. Even if there is a crisis, a stable
country can quickly recover and return to its equilibrium state.

Vulnerable state A vulnerable country is more susceptible then a stable country to the
changes in the economy, politics, demographics and climate. A damaging event could cause the
country leave its current state and gradually become a fragile state; a favorable event could, on
the contrary, lead the country approach to the stable state.
Fragile state A fragile country is the currently experiencing uctuations in economy and
politics. It does not possess a strong economy or a well-regulated society. As a result, any small
turbulence could bring large impacts on all factors. Moreover, even if the country manages to
recover from these disturbances, it can only resume to its previous fragile state.
3.2 The Model
To quantify a country's fragility, we use a dynamic system, in terms of money (M), to
estimate the impacts of changes in di erent factors on a country. However, we believe that money
is not the sole predictor of the fragility of a country. Thus, in our model, we incorporate factors
including economy, politics, demographics and climate.
M = f(E; P; D; C)
(1)
Here, M is a function of E; P; D; and C, where M represents the market impact of those factors,
and E, P , D, C are the economic, political, demographical and climate change metrics
respectively. In this way, we could comprehensively analyze a country's capability to combat
unexpected events categorized under di erent sectors. We achieve this simulation by studying
how the variation in one parameter would in uence the overall fragility of the society.
Further developing our model, we realize that the derivative of M is an autonomous function,
that is growth rate of the market is not dependent on time. Yet, the growth rate of the market is
described as the positive impact minus the negative impact.
growth rate = positive($) negative($)
(2)
The positive impact considers the natural growth of the market itself accompanied with a limited
capacity which varies depending on the parameters. The negative impact is composed of human
intervention, disturbing climate change and other unfavorable variation in the

Inspired by the outbreak system by Ludwig et al. (1978), we obtain the functions above. p

(M)
represents the market growth with limited capacity, where m

describes the growth rate, m

represents the maximum of market capacity, and k is a scale factor that measures how economy,
politics, demographics and climate change would a ect the actual limit of the market. To come up
with the value of k, we use a composite index consisting of metrics in economy, politics,
demographics and climate change. g
′
(M) represents the negative impact that could potentially
slow down the market growth. In the early development stage, M is small and the negative
market impact would only show signs. However, when the market exceeds a critical level A, the
negative impact would turn on quickly. This happens when the harmful events have built up to
an extent that they cause a chain of reactions and the impact would nally reach to its limitation B.
Therefore, we have the whole model:

In order for us to examine the model more easily, we have converted the function into a
dimensionless form so that there are only two parameters, r and s.
Next step, we de ne all parameters and the techniques of processing relevant data.
4 Metrics for Assessing Fragility
Our metrics are similar to indicators used in the Fragile States Index. But, instead of rating
those factors, we target to collect both quantitative and qualitative data by coun-try and by year.
Besides, our metrics will be more concise because we nd that there are some overlapping
variables in FSI. For example, both Factionalized Elites of the Cohesion indicators and Uneven
Development in Economic indicators have considered the wealth dis-tribution and tries to assess
the equality of wealth (Marshall and Cole, 2017). In the end, using RStudio, we process all the
datasets and obtain a composite index.

4.1 Climate Change
Climate change is expected to have negative impacts on human societies and economies,
which may bring huge economic losses.
Occurrence of natural disasters
EM-DAT contains data on the occurrence and e ects of di erent types of natural disasters
worldwide from 1900 to present. However, the data is not publicly available. So we use
probabilistic risk results provided by UNISDR. The probabilistic risk results provide
results of an estimate of probable loss levels in a country based on historic events. This
data is useful because it considers damages caused by small, moderate and severe events
and obtains a robust metric for risking ranking and comparison.
Deforestation
Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) contains comprehensive forestry datasets such
as forest coverage, reforestation, burned forest and economic value of the country's
forestry value. Among them, we select the annual Tree cover loss rate by country with unit
of hectare to re ect the deforestation rate as part of climate change.
Droughts/ oods
We use Precipitation Anomaly from World Bank to re ect occurrence of both droughts
and oods. This dataset includes historical monthly precipitation worldwide from 1900
to present.
Rising sea levels/shrinking glaciers
Although sea level rise is a major component of global climate change, it is not a typical
question for all countries. Since rising sea level and green house e ects are tightly related,
we only consider temperature rises instead of rising sea level.
Rising temperatures
We retrieve historical temperature data from World Bank. This data is called Global
Historical Climatology Network version 2 station monthly mean temperatures and station
metadata created by U.S. National Climatic Data Center. This dataset contains quality-
controlled, adjusted monthly mean temperature in unit of degree Celsius.
4.2 Economical Metrics
The economic meta-metrics considers factors related to economic decline within a country.
Except for the economic factors listed below, we have also considered unequal development
