Alternative for Germany and Likud
Measured distance across six axes
Effectively the same position. They agree within three points on EC, CU, AU, SC, ID, CH. No axis separates them by eight points or more.

Each axis runs from −10 to +10; the distance is the straight-line separation across all six at once, out of a maximum of 49.0. How the scoring works →
The evidence behind the widest gaps
A distance figure is worth nothing unless the scores behind it can be checked. These are the artefacts supporting the axes that separate these two most.
AfD · CU +09
Coded +9: national identity, Leitkultur and opposition to what the party calls gender ideology.
- Programme textProgramme rejects multiculturalism explicitly and opposes recognition of gender beyond the binary.
Likud · CU +06
Coded +6: traditionalist coalition politics with a secular liberal party history.
- Documented act or statuteGoverns in coalition with parties committed to religious authority over personal status law.
What this comparison does not establish
Proximity means similarity of stated position. It carries no claim about competence, circumstance, scale of operation, or what either organisation actually did to the people under it. Two organisations can sit close together and produce entirely different histories, because those things are not on any axis and could not be.
Alternative for Germany
2013– · Germany
Founded against euro bailouts, reoriented around immigration, national identity and rejection of climate policy.
Likud
1973– · Israel
Security-first nationalism, settlement of the West Bank, free-market economics, judicial restraint.
Distance is not the whole answer. Two organisations can sit the same distance apart for entirely different reasons, and the reason is the content of any claim about them. Open the comparison in the atlas to weight the axes yourself.
