Scores are min–max normalised across the 12-island panel. A 0 means “lowest in this panel”, not “none”; a 100 means “highest in this panel”, not “complete”. Change the panel and the scores change.

▸Why it is never ranked
Jeju is a special self-governing province of South Korea, not a sovereign state. 22 of 28 indicators are undefined at sub-national level, and the rest inherit Korea's sovereign credit, national grid and national digital infrastructure. It scores near the top on every measure of shock-absorbing capacity — not because Jeju is resilient, but because Korea is.
