Rank charts for a Supers setting

[Phantasm]

The setting is one with a number of interstellar alien empires interacting with an Early 21st Century Earth that happens to have a large and potentially powerful superhuman population. However, Earth itself is still rather "Balkanized", not "united" like the alien empires trying to conquer it would expect. The majority of superhumans appear to be from the United States and Europe; quite possibly there are even more superhumans in China and India, but they don't make the front page as often.

As such, these charts are geared towards the United States for Earth-level rankings. (Yes, this is for my Marvel Reboot project; it could just as easily be adapted for Star Wars. A lot of it is based off the tables in Traveller: Interstellar Wars.)
