Modelling Hegemonic Power Transition in Cyberspace

Figure 4

For a probability of cooperation of 0.5, we plot a point each time a state rises above the minimum wealth. The dwell time is the time spent above the minimum wealth, and the maximum wealth is the maximum wealth achieved during that dwell time. A logarithmic scale is used on the horizontal axis for clarity. The smoothness of the distribution indicates that hegemonic states (in the top right of the plot) are not special.
