An interesting relation between home team win rate and major conflict can be observed.
A hypothesis: Countries may have used home team sports victories as propaganda to increase citizen nationalism.
Application: If a major conflict breaks out,we may be able to use this analysis in sports betting applications to gain an edge.

So what I’m reading here is that the home team basically always wins?
That’s interesting. Why do you think the likelihood of a home win has been consistently below 50% for the past 20 years?
