Notes

  1. Kosovo is the subject of a territorial dispute between the Republic of Kosovo and the Republic of Serbia. The Republic of Kosovo unilaterally declared independence on 17 February 2008, but Serbia continues to claim it as part of its own sovereign territory. The two governments began to normalise relations in 2013, as part of the 2013 Brussels Agreement. Kosovo is currently recognized as an independent state by 97 out of the 193 United Nations member states. In total, 112 UN member states recognized Kosovo at some point, of which 15 later withdrew their recognition.
gollark: Regarding actually selecting on children: I think you could make some reasonable argument about not disadvantaging children genetically or something but also people are terrible and could not be trusted to do this in a nonterrible way.
gollark: limons did mention something about just using it for membership in some group and not for deciding who reproduces, but that's not particularly eugenicsy and just vaguely stupid like mensa.
gollark: Yeees, actually, hmm.
gollark: Anyway, limons, for the purpose you specified it would work fine to just rank people on accomplishments instead of some rough "intelligence" metric.
gollark: Violent crime dropped a ton some time after leaded petrol was beeized.
