How are leaders sorted in the ILS?

[plloyd1010]

I was entering leaders for the Chinese NRA in Vassal. So whatever reason I decided the check the values I had on my list, which is a text copy of the ILS leaders. While I was comparing that to the counterset, I noticed the order in which they are presented was completely from the order in the counterset. I don't see why the order in the ILS would matter. Nor does the order have any relevance to my purpose. I was just wondering if the ILS keeps the leaders in the same order in which they were entered or does it sort them in some way?
