Is there one? Does the server create a base #? Is it the same for all server classes?

no ratio.
Bots per server on a different amount:
Alliance: 250
FFA: 2000
Express: 60

There are currently 383 countries in the Alliance server.
So, 383 minus off 250 bots = 133 human players in Alliance now?

worse when you see:
FFA:
There are currently 2601 countries in the Free For All server.
-2000 Bots
601/16 = 37.5625 ~ 38 players..

Express:
There are currently 103 countries in the Express server.
-60 bots = 43 players

Primary (No Bots):
There are currently 96 countries in the Primary server.

Tourney (No Bots):
19 + 14 + 13 = 46 Players

and Team last set:
There were 40 countries in the Team server.

Bit weird how primary has similar number to alliance ;)

@Bug, any plan from developers to attract more players to play this game?
It's a bit worrying to see this game getting less & less players when years go by. =/

Does the bot generator select a representative amount of government types? And an equity betwixt builds? There upon I witness that a random artificial entity shall purchase or produce a large force of jets, yet pose no more a threat than some infant suckling its mother's teat. Or another who fields massive columns of tanks who act as mere targets for aggressors. An agency of destruction they do not poses, so why the sharpened swords?
Is this chicanery or all by design?

You'll have to ask them, tbh.

So, the bot code is fairly publicly viewable if you want to find it/use it for your own testing.
But countries strategies are based on their own number (except express which is random) and then from that certain governments are selected to randomise the play a bit, most of the bots produce the same thing from there, and they have a level of defence that is bought along with tech and other things. As for why they buy or build jets, well the indy variants of the bots will want to produce jets for income, thats all really.
