population /agriculture=
in #/ in available calories =
calories per person
calories per person/2000=% of rda
%of rda / population = % of possible death through malnutrition
.....
domestic agriculture expressed in calories
labor hours to produce calories
agriculture diveded by labor hours =calories perhour of labor
.....
then energry ....and on and on for each nation state currennt
.....
......
next is past statistics
religion per nation ,,,,,,state amount given or taken in gdp
goverment same ,,,,, in gdp
social conditions ,,,,

Three examples of the new kind of mathematics that one group I have Googled-upon [see my post "Psycho-History Accomplished? -- A Review" for more details] proposes as a mathematical language for "Psycho-Historical Modeling", can be viewed via the following links:

1. "Psycho-Historical Mathematical Model of the psycho-history "human social formation" beginning from primitive foraging bands -- Pictorial:

www.adventures-in-dialectics.org . . .

-- Slides 47 to 53 --

1. Narrative and "Formulaic" rendering of the same model:

www.dialectics.org . . .

1. Both Narrative/"Formulaic" & Pictorial rendering:

www.adventures-in-dialectics.org . . .

2. "Psycho-Historical Mathematical Model" of the "Meta-Evolution" of Economic Forms, beginning with the "Appropriation of the Products of Nature "Raw", without improvement, for human consumption, by human labor [i.e., "predation"], and progressing to Money and beyond -- Pictorial rendering --

www.adventures-in-dialectics.org . . .

-- Slides 53 to 57;

Narrative and "Formulaic" rendering --

www.dialectics.org . . .

3. "Psycho-Historical Mathematical Model" of the "Meta-Evolution" of the formations of Human Knowledge, beginning with "Mythopoeia", progressing through "Religion", "Philosophy", and "Science", and ending with "Psycho-History". That is, this Model claims to be a "Psycho-Historical Model" of the formation of Psycho-History Itself!

Pictorial --

www.adventures-in-dialectics.org . . .

-- slide number 101 -- Narrative and Formulaic --

www.dialectics.org . . .

-- narrtive rendering starts on page B-9, labeled "Example 1."

All of these models are expressed in terms of the "simplest" "rules-system" and symbology for "Psycho-Historical Algebra", which is described as a "Contra-Boolean Algebra" and also as a "Non-Standard Model" of the "Natural Arithmetic" of the set N = {1, 2, 3, ...}.

But they also present a progression of systems of "Psycho-Historical Algebra", each one capable of more detailed, more complex, more concrete description than its predecessor(s), of which this "simplest" "Contra-Boolean Algebra" is merely the first.

However, a "Psycho-Historical Model" of this progression of systems of "Psycho-Historical Mathematics" is also given, and it is written using the symbols and the rules of this first, "simplest" system of "Psycho-Historical Mathematics" -- this "Contra-Boolean Algebra".
