The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centroid centroid] of a country (or area) can de defined in multiple ways. On the earth surface it is more useful to speak of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographical_centre geographical center]. It is possible to find lists of these centers for area's on earth.

* distance worksheet: this worksheet contains the distances between the cities noted on the population spreadsheet. The distances are taken from OpenStreetMap. Only the fields above the diagonal need to be filled. The fields below the diagonal are filled subsequently;
* distance worksheet: this worksheet contains the distances between the cities noted on the population spreadsheet. The distances are taken from OpenStreetMap. Only the fields above the diagonal need to be filled. The fields below the diagonal are filled subsequently;
* weighted sum: this worksheet is calculated based on the two worksheets mentioned above. The row at the bottom (the one without a city) is the sum of a column. The column with the smallest sum is the city we are looking for. To determine the quality of this city, the entries weighted dethroning distance, dethroning distance and real distance need to be changed. The weighted dethroning distance should have the weighted sum of the runnerup city minus the weighted sum of the centroid city. The dethroning distance is the weighted dethroning distance divided by the population fraction of the latest city that has been added. And the real distance is a reference to the real distance between the centroid and runnerup city. The larger the difference betzeen dethroning distance and real distance, the better the quality;

* growth worksheet: this worksheet allows to see how the weighted sums grow with each added city. Especially to see what happens between the centroid and runnerup city;
* size worksheet: this worksheet allows to estimate the transportation size of a country. The cumulative weighted sum is plotted against the cumulative population fraction. A logarithmic fit is made, and the transportation size is estimated at a population fraction of 1, i.e. the entire population;
