Overview

Out of 72 countries, Czechia sits at #62 — #62 Most Cooked. Three departments are doing the heavy lifting here: political institutions (political polarization beats 24% of the field, just not in a good way), criminal justice policy (incarceration rate, 64th percentile), and public health policy bringing up the rear. Different agencies, same energy.

Overall score: 16/100 — 11 points below the global median of 27 (higher = more cooked). Where the system is holding up: homicide rate (Homicide 0.8/100k) — better than 81% of countries tracked. The story here isn't the country — it's the political institutions stack behind these numbers.
