The profile in detail
Government and accountability. Structure: 28.7% Federal, 71.3% Unitary (Leaning Unitary); Representation: 51.2% Democracy, 48.8% Autocracy (Balanced). This combination separates where authority is located from how leaders are selected and constrained. It preserves those two choices even when a broad political label does not distinguish them. On Representation, the 877-profile catalog median is 57.5% Democracy; Santiago Peña sits 6.3 points below it. 80 reference profiles share this band.
Civil power and culture. Power: 62.5% Security, 37.5% Liberty (Leaning Security); Immigration: 51.2% Assimilation, 48.8% Multiculturalism (Balanced). The first contrast concerns limits on civil life; the second concerns cultural adaptation and plural identities. Reading them together avoids inferring an immigration position solely from a preference about security. On Power, the 877-profile catalog median is 58.8% Security; Santiago Peña sits 3.7 points above it. 175 reference profiles share this band.
Force and foreign policy. Diplomacy: 50% Militarist, 50% Pacifist (Balanced); Intervention: 28.7% Non-interventionist, 71.3% Nationalist (Leaning Nationalist). Military capacity and projection of national interests are distinct choices in this model. These coordinates show how the profile combines military means and external objectives, without assuming that they always move together. On Intervention, the 877-profile catalog median is 48.8% Non-interventionist; Santiago Peña sits 20.1 points below it. 187 reference profiles share this band.
Ownership, coordination and trade. Economy: 37.5% Public, 62.5% Private (Leaning Private); Control: 30% Planning, 70% Free market (Leaning Free market); Trade: 22.5% Protectionism, 77.5% Globalism (Strong Globalism). These ask three different questions: who owns, how activity is coordinated and how the economy engages abroad. The economic profile of Santiago Peña depends on that combination, rather than a single left or right classification. On Economy, the 877-profile catalog median is 53.2% Public; Santiago Peña sits 15.7 points below it. 179 reference profiles share this band.
Belief and social norms. Religion: 27.5% Irreligious, 72.5% Religious (Strong Religious); Morality: 15% Progressive, 85% Traditionalist (Strong Traditionalist). The model keeps religious influence separate from continuity in social norms. These values describe the reference profile; they do not assign a religion to someone who receives this match in the quiz. On Morality, the 877-profile catalog median is 38.8% Progressive; Santiago Peña sits 23.8 points below it. 182 reference profiles share this band.
Technology and limits. Technology: 61.3% Technology, 38.7% Biology (Leaning Technology). This adds a perspective on innovation and biological continuity that cannot be inferred directly from the economic coordinates. For Santiago Peña, the 11.3-point distance from the center indicates the intensity of this particular position. On Technology, the 877-profile catalog median is 57.5% Technology; Santiago Peña sits 3.8 points above it. 299 reference profiles share this band.
