This page lists all "countries" and International Organizations included in WeSIS and their numeric codes. Defining a country, political unit or a state member of the international system is challenging. In order to ensure cross-comparability to other major data collections in the social sciences, we rely on the coding by the [http://www.correlatesofwar.org/ Corrrelates of War] project (COW), but deviate (as documented below) if necessary.
  
== Definition and Discussion ==
+
== Identifying entities ==
COW and V-Dem show a huge overlap in defining entities. For COW, an entity must have "a resonable degree of autonomy". For V-Dem, an entity must be an "effective governance unit".
 
Further criteria apply e.g. population size, diplomatic missions, or continuity with a contemporary nation-state. They partly differ regarding the treatment of successor or predecessor states. V-Dem's country codes aim at providing a consistent time series whereas COW usually treats states as "fixed". For example, COW assigns three codes to Korea, North Korea and South Korea; V-Dem subsumes Korea and South Korea under one code. Data in WeSIS can be matched on several IDs. Thus, it allows for a flexible case selection reflecting user's demands. As a coding standard, data was collected for each separate entity whenever possible.
 
  
'''Disclaimer''': The inclusion of an entity in WeSIS is based on scientific and analytical grounds. This precludes any judgments about which territories qualify as countries. For this reason, recognizing entities in WeSIS should not be interpreted as judgments about sovereign claims to disputed territories.

Contemporary states existent in 2016 form the basis of this list. COW applies a minimum definition for actors to qualify as a state member of the international system since
 +
1816 (for a detailed discussion and refinements see COW's "[http://www.correlatesofwar.org/data-sets/state-system-membership State System Membership List, v2016]"):

* Prior to 1920, the entity must have population greater than 500,000 and have had diplomatic missions at or above the rank of charge d’affaires with Britain and France.
 +
* After 1920, the entity must be a member of the United Nations or League of Nations, or have a population greater than 500,000 and receive diplomatic missions from two major powers.

In addition, territorial and/or administrative changes are tracked and related entities are included for WeSIS based on COW's [https://correlatesofwar.org/data-sets/colonial-dependency-contiguity "Colonial Contiguity Data"], more specifically the "Entities" list (included in the PDF file).

==== International Organizations ====
 +
 
 +
Regarding International Organizations (IOs), COW defines the following criteria for an IO to be considered (for a detailed discussion and refinements see COW's [https://correlatesofwar.org/data-sets/igos/ "Codebook for International Governmental Organizations Data Set"]):
 +
 
 +
* An IGO must consist of at least three members of the COW-defined state system.
 +
* An IGO must hold regular plenary sessions at least once every ten years.
 +
* An IGO must possess a permanent secretariat and corresponding headquarters.
 +
 
 +
WeSIS does not include all IOs listed by COW, but recognizes those IOs as entities that play a role for the dynamics of social policies.
 +
 
 +
== Amendments and limitations ==
 +
 
 +
In general, the temporal domain of COW starts in 1816. Yet, WeSIS does not recognize entities beyond the time frame defined by the earliest or latest year in the colums "independence" and "relation_year". In some cases, changes have been made with respect to the start or end year of independence or a relation. These are documented in the column "remark". Most notable are deviances when a country not yet gained full independence regarding foreign policy - a defining criterion for COW - but had autonomy or self-government over domestic policies. As social policies fall into this realm, time frames may have been adjusted.

==== Relation to other schemes ====
 +
 
 +
There are many other country coding schemes out there like [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1 ISO 3166-1] or the scheme applied by the "Varieties of Democracy" Project ([https://www.v-dem.net/en/ V-Dem]) - each with a different scope regarding time and entities. Given the analytical scope of the [http://www.socialpolicydynamics.de/en/ CRC 1342], it was decided to opt for the COW scheme in the first place, and modify and ammend it where necessary. For the most parts, the WeSIS numerical codes are in line with COW. Since COW has become a standard on its own, V-Dem includes COW codes as well making it easy to merge WeSIS, COW and/or V-Dem data. Likewise, packages like [https://github.com/vincentarelbundock/countrycode countrycode] for R or [https://ideas.repec.org/c/boc/bocode/s453301.html kountry] for Stata provide valuable tools to convert from and to COW codes if needed.
 +
 
 +
== A note on "counterfactual and related unit" coding ==
 +
 
 +
Each country coding scheme reflects the analytical lens of its (scientific) project at a given time point. COW, for example, treats as many entities as separate as possible to allow for adequately describing and analyzing inter- and intra-state wars – the founding principle of COW. V-Dem, in turn, emphasizes the continuity with a contemporary nation-state being interested in the state of democracy and how it changes. Being published in 1974, the ISO 3166 scheme was introduced to reflect the need for harmonized and machine-readable standards, foremost for official statistical purposes, but with a focus on the then existing countries and their subdivisions. Given that countries, borders and names change, there is no "one-size-fits-all scheme"; for the social sciences, the question rather is which scheme "does the least harm" when assigning values to entities. In this sense, the coding scheme used for WeSIS sits in-between COW and V-Dem (while still providing ISO 3166 codes when downloading data).
 +
 
 +
Analyzing the introduction of social policies and the interplay between national determinants and international and transnational interdependencies, for example colonial legacies, the COW scheme best reflected the CRC's need at that time. Once introduced, there has been an analytical shift though to describe and analyze the dynamics of the focal policy within a country over time (i.e., more like V-Dem's focus). To maintain consistency, comparability, and compatibility, WeSIS still relies on the COW coding scheme, but certain modifications and deviations were needed to adequately describe and map the ''dynamics'' of social policies.
 +
 
 +
While any deviation is noted in the above table in the column remarks, certain coding issues arise when assigning values to the "proper" entity at a given point in time: Georgia, for example, did not "suddenly" introduce a health-care system upon independence in 1991 but rather "inherited" the system from the time being part of the Soviet Union. For this reason – and unless noted otherwise on an indicator page – in WeSIS a '''''counterfactual and related unit coding''''' is applied.
 +
 
 +
A "counterfactual coding" assigns the values of related entities to the "lower" units in cases like the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, Austria-Hungary and the like for times where today’s (!) focal entity was not (yet) independent. The related units thereby "inherit" the values of the related entity.
 +
One issue with this kind of coding, still, is that it may be misleading for some entities if differing information is available for both the related unit and the "lower" units. A case in point is Yugoslavia's 1974 constitutional reform which significantly decentralized social policy, delegating extensive authority to the constituent republics. While the federal government only set minimum standards, the republics were granted the authority to expand both the scope and coverage of benefits within their territories. Consequently, data on Yugoslavia may indicate a reduction in benefits, as it reflects only the minimum federal standards.
 +
 
 +
For this reason, in WeSIS we opted for
 +
* combining the "counterfactual coding" with
 +
* restrictions to the scope of certain COW codes, while
 +
* adding new entities to the country scheme that COW does not cover.
 +
 
 +
The two use cases exemplified below capture most instances of previously "dominant" units like the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia but also colonial dependencies and cases like Korea where no unification took place after splitting up. Consequently, only two entities "missing" in COW were added to the WeSIS country scheme, namely:
 +
* Soviet Union with numerical code 3651 whereby the scope of 365 is restricted to today’s core Russia.
 +
* Yugoslavia with numerical code 3451 whereby the scope of 345 is restricted to today’s core Serbia.
 +
 
 +
==== Exemplifying a related unit coding ====
 +
 
 +
In the case of Yugoslavia data for Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, or Slovenia may be coded in a counterfactual sense looking back thereby creating a "consistent time-series" for todays’ entity. This implies
 +
* to fill each country's time-series with information that applied to entire Yugoslavia ("related unit coding");
 +
* to restrict the COW code of Serbia (345) to today’s Serbia thereby diverging from COW by "excluding" Yugoslavia;
 +
* to add a new code for Yugoslavia (3451), strictly limited to the time from 1918 to 1992.
 +
 
 +
Below are two use cases taking the Yugoslavian example. For the sake of ease assume two indicators:
 +
* one (e.g., a macro-economic indicator) for which information is only available for entire Yugoslavia (aka the '''''related entity''''');
 +
* and a second capturing the scope of benefits as in the example given above, i.e., information for the '''''related units''''' is available and either no information for the higher-level unit is available or is available but diverges.
 +
 
 +
Use case #1 applies the "counterfactual coding" resulting in a consistent time-series for each focal entity. For use case #2, information from the federal level that diverges from information for the republics is still accurately captured in that today’s countries bear their proper data even for times being part of Yugoslavia while the latter information for the higher-level unit does not get lost.

==== Idiosyncratic codings ====
 +
 
 +
Few cases still exist in the COW coding scheme where use cases #1 and #2 do not work immediately; for these, the following codes and coding rules were agreed upon:
 +
 
 +
* '''Germany''': COW provides three codes to capture Germany (255), the Federal Republic of Germany (260) and the German Democratic Republic (265). Given that COW resumes the 255-code after 1990 raises the question how to capture/display a continuity. For this reason, it was agreed to rely on the latest codes (i.e., 255 and 265), and code the data as follows:
 +
** Duplicate any 255-data before 1954/1955 for the GDR thereby creating a "265-timeline" – which is similar to use case #1 ("counterfactual coding"). 265 is then restricted temporally to end in 1990.
 +
** Assign any data of the Federal Republic of Germany (260) to the latest code, i.e., 255; this way, the code of 260 becomes obsolete and future data collections shall only use 255 for data between 1945 and 1990.
 +
 
 +
* '''Vietnam''': Vietnam (816) and Republic of Vietnam (817): Prior to independence, use case #1 applies in that the time-series for Vietnam (816) and the Republic of Vietnam (817) bear the values from the "dominant" colonial power; upon unification the time-series of 817 simply ends (like the time-series of the GDR) whereas 816 continues.
 +
 
 +
* '''Yemen''': COW provides three codes to capture Yemen (679), the Yemen Arab Republic (678) and Yemen People’s Republic (680; "South Yemen"). In line with V-Dem and many studies in piece research, it was agreed to still continue the code 678 as the "main" code for Yemen (instead of using the latest "unification code", thereby making 679 obsolete). Analogous to the case of the GDR, it was agreed to duplicate any 678-data before 1967 for "South Yemen" thereby creating a "680-timeline" which temporally ends in 1990 (and which is similar to use case #1, i.e., a "counterfactual coding").

The table lists all entities that WeSIS recognizes with their numerical code. The codes derive from the COW scheme with some adjustments necessary to the fit the analytical scope of WeSIS. It contains information about the years when an entity was or is independent, records related entities, the type of relation and corresponding time frames. The column "pop_over_500k" is a dummy indicating whether the contemporary entity has a population over 500.000 (=1), or not (=0) in 2016 (Source: [https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/sp.pop.totl Worldbank 2019]). It was used for setting priorities in terms of data collection. The columns "alt_names" and "remark" give name changes and note any deviances and changes from the original COW scheme. Finally, the table includes links to Wikipedia for more information about an entity and its history. This way, the list eases finding the proper numeric code when coding data for a certain entity and point in time.

To avoid ambiguity of COW's country and IO codes, we kept the original COW IGO code but added a leading "9" to arrive at a five-digit code above the numerical range of "countries". The International Labour Organization's COW code "2830", for example, thus becomes "92830". This way, IO codes can still be back traced.

Latest revision as of 13:20, 31 March 2025

This page lists all "countries" and International Organizations included in WeSIS and their numeric codes. Defining a country, political unit or a state member of the international system is challenging. In order to ensure cross-comparability to other major data collections in the social sciences, we rely on the coding by the Corrrelates of War project (COW), but deviate (as documented below) if necessary.

Identifying entities

Contemporary states existent in 2016 form the basis of this list. COW applies a minimum definition for actors to qualify as a state member of the international system since 1816 (for a detailed discussion and refinements see COW's "State System Membership List, v2016"):

  • Prior to 1920, the entity must have population greater than 500,000 and have had diplomatic missions at or above the rank of charge d’affaires with Britain and France.
  • After 1920, the entity must be a member of the United Nations or League of Nations, or have a population greater than 500,000 and receive diplomatic missions from two major powers.

In addition, territorial and/or administrative changes are tracked and related entities are included for WeSIS based on COW's "Colonial Contiguity Data", more specifically the "Entities" list (included in the PDF file).

International Organizations

Regarding International Organizations (IOs), COW defines the following criteria for an IO to be considered (for a detailed discussion and refinements see COW's "Codebook for International Governmental Organizations Data Set"):

  • An IGO must consist of at least three members of the COW-defined state system.
  • An IGO must hold regular plenary sessions at least once every ten years.
  • An IGO must possess a permanent secretariat and corresponding headquarters.

WeSIS does not include all IOs listed by COW, but recognizes those IOs as entities that play a role for the dynamics of social policies.

Amendments and limitations

In general, the temporal domain of COW starts in 1816. Yet, WeSIS does not recognize entities beyond the time frame defined by the earliest or latest year in the colums "independence" and "relation_year". In some cases, changes have been made with respect to the start or end year of independence or a relation. These are documented in the column "remark". Most notable are deviances when a country not yet gained full independence regarding foreign policy - a defining criterion for COW - but had autonomy or self-government over domestic policies. As social policies fall into this realm, time frames may have been adjusted.

Disclaimer

The inclusion of an entity in WeSIS is based on scientific and analytical grounds. This precludes any judgments about which territories qualify as countries. For this reason, recognizing entities in WeSIS should not be interpreted as judgments about sovereign claims to disputed territories.

Relation to other schemes

There are many other country coding schemes out there like ISO 3166-1 or the scheme applied by the "Varieties of Democracy" Project (V-Dem) - each with a different scope regarding time and entities. Given the analytical scope of the CRC 1342, it was decided to opt for the COW scheme in the first place, and modify and ammend it where necessary. For the most parts, the WeSIS numerical codes are in line with COW. Since COW has become a standard on its own, V-Dem includes COW codes as well making it easy to merge WeSIS, COW and/or V-Dem data. Likewise, packages like countrycode for R or kountry for Stata provide valuable tools to convert from and to COW codes if needed.

A note on "counterfactual and related unit" coding

Each country coding scheme reflects the analytical lens of its (scientific) project at a given time point. COW, for example, treats as many entities as separate as possible to allow for adequately describing and analyzing inter- and intra-state wars – the founding principle of COW. V-Dem, in turn, emphasizes the continuity with a contemporary nation-state being interested in the state of democracy and how it changes. Being published in 1974, the ISO 3166 scheme was introduced to reflect the need for harmonized and machine-readable standards, foremost for official statistical purposes, but with a focus on the then existing countries and their subdivisions. Given that countries, borders and names change, there is no "one-size-fits-all scheme"; for the social sciences, the question rather is which scheme "does the least harm" when assigning values to entities. In this sense, the coding scheme used for WeSIS sits in-between COW and V-Dem (while still providing ISO 3166 codes when downloading data).

Analyzing the introduction of social policies and the interplay between national determinants and international and transnational interdependencies, for example colonial legacies, the COW scheme best reflected the CRC's need at that time. Once introduced, there has been an analytical shift though to describe and analyze the dynamics of the focal policy within a country over time (i.e., more like V-Dem's focus). To maintain consistency, comparability, and compatibility, WeSIS still relies on the COW coding scheme, but certain modifications and deviations were needed to adequately describe and map the dynamics of social policies.

While any deviation is noted in the above table in the column remarks, certain coding issues arise when assigning values to the "proper" entity at a given point in time: Georgia, for example, did not "suddenly" introduce a health-care system upon independence in 1991 but rather "inherited" the system from the time being part of the Soviet Union. For this reason – and unless noted otherwise on an indicator page – in WeSIS a counterfactual and related unit coding is applied.

A "counterfactual coding" assigns the values of related entities to the "lower" units in cases like the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, Austria-Hungary and the like for times where today’s (!) focal entity was not (yet) independent. The related units thereby "inherit" the values of the related entity. One issue with this kind of coding, still, is that it may be misleading for some entities if differing information is available for both the related unit and the "lower" units. A case in point is Yugoslavia's 1974 constitutional reform which significantly decentralized social policy, delegating extensive authority to the constituent republics. While the federal government only set minimum standards, the republics were granted the authority to expand both the scope and coverage of benefits within their territories. Consequently, data on Yugoslavia may indicate a reduction in benefits, as it reflects only the minimum federal standards.

For this reason, in WeSIS we opted for

  • combining the "counterfactual coding" with
  • restrictions to the scope of certain COW codes, while
  • adding new entities to the country scheme that COW does not cover.

The two use cases exemplified below capture most instances of previously "dominant" units like the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia but also colonial dependencies and cases like Korea where no unification took place after splitting up. Consequently, only two entities "missing" in COW were added to the WeSIS country scheme, namely:

  • Soviet Union with numerical code 3651 whereby the scope of 365 is restricted to today’s core Russia.
  • Yugoslavia with numerical code 3451 whereby the scope of 345 is restricted to today’s core Serbia.

Exemplifying a related unit coding

In the case of Yugoslavia data for Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, or Slovenia may be coded in a counterfactual sense looking back thereby creating a "consistent time-series" for todays’ entity. This implies

  • to fill each country's time-series with information that applied to entire Yugoslavia ("related unit coding");
  • to restrict the COW code of Serbia (345) to today’s Serbia thereby diverging from COW by "excluding" Yugoslavia;
  • to add a new code for Yugoslavia (3451), strictly limited to the time from 1918 to 1992.

Below are two use cases taking the Yugoslavian example. For the sake of ease assume two indicators:

  • one (e.g., a macro-economic indicator) for which information is only available for entire Yugoslavia (aka the related entity);
  • and a second capturing the scope of benefits as in the example given above, i.e., information for the related units is available and either no information for the higher-level unit is available or is available but diverges.

Use case #1 applies the "counterfactual coding" resulting in a consistent time-series for each focal entity. For use case #2, information from the federal level that diverges from information for the republics is still accurately captured in that today’s countries bear their proper data even for times being part of Yugoslavia while the latter information for the higher-level unit does not get lost.

Use case #1: Information only available for related entity
cow_code country_name year technical_variable_name value NOTE:
newly assigned code Yugoslavia 1974 econnat_indicator1 10 a new entity for Yugoslavia is added; this is the "true value"
346 Bosnia and Herzegovina 1974 econnat_indicator1 10 duplicate from related entity, i.e., "counterfactual coding"
344 Croatia 1974 econnat_indicator1 10 "counterfactual coding"
343 Macedonia 1974 econnat_indicator1 10 "counterfactual coding"
341 Montenegro 1974 econnat_indicator1 10 "counterfactual coding"
345 Serbia 1974 econnat_indicator1 10 cow_code restricted to core Serbia; "counterfactual coding"
349 Slovenia 1974 econnat_indicator1 10 "counterfactual coding"
Use case #2: Information for the related units is available (and either no or diverging information for the related entity)
cow_code country_name year technical_variable_name value NOTE:
newly assigned code Yugoslavia 1974 fam_scope_indicator1 5 a new entity for Yugoslavia is added; value valid at federal level; case could be omitted if data is available for republics only (or coded as "n/a")
346 Bosnia and Herzegovina 1974 fam_scope_indicator1 8 consistent time-series looking back from today’s entity
344 Croatia 1974 fam_scope_indicator1 10 consistent time-series looking back from today’s entity
343 Macedonia 1974 fam_scope_indicator1 9 consistent time-series looking back from today’s entity
341 Montenegro 1974 fam_scope_indicator1 15 consistent time-series looking back from today’s entity
345 Serbia 1974 fam_scope_indicator1 12 consistent time-series looking back from today’s entity
349 Slovenia 1974 fam_scope_indicator1 13 consistent time-series looking back from today’s entity

Idiosyncratic codings

Few cases still exist in the COW coding scheme where use cases #1 and #2 do not work immediately; for these, the following codes and coding rules were agreed upon:

  • Germany: COW provides three codes to capture Germany (255), the Federal Republic of Germany (260) and the German Democratic Republic (265). Given that COW resumes the 255-code after 1990 raises the question how to capture/display a continuity. For this reason, it was agreed to rely on the latest codes (i.e., 255 and 265), and code the data as follows:
    • Duplicate any 255-data before 1954/1955 for the GDR thereby creating a "265-timeline" – which is similar to use case #1 ("counterfactual coding"). 265 is then restricted temporally to end in 1990.
    • Assign any data of the Federal Republic of Germany (260) to the latest code, i.e., 255; this way, the code of 260 becomes obsolete and future data collections shall only use 255 for data between 1945 and 1990.
  • Vietnam: Vietnam (816) and Republic of Vietnam (817): Prior to independence, use case #1 applies in that the time-series for Vietnam (816) and the Republic of Vietnam (817) bear the values from the "dominant" colonial power; upon unification the time-series of 817 simply ends (like the time-series of the GDR) whereas 816 continues.
  • Yemen: COW provides three codes to capture Yemen (679), the Yemen Arab Republic (678) and Yemen People’s Republic (680; "South Yemen"). In line with V-Dem and many studies in piece research, it was agreed to still continue the code 678 as the "main" code for Yemen (instead of using the latest "unification code", thereby making 679 obsolete). Analogous to the case of the GDR, it was agreed to duplicate any 678-data before 1967 for "South Yemen" thereby creating a "680-timeline" which temporally ends in 1990 (and which is similar to use case #1, i.e., a "counterfactual coding").

Relation types, or: how to read the table

The entity list below uses index notation to describe the relation, the time frame and type within a row. Using Cuba as an example, it can be read as follows:

cow_code country_name independence related_list relation_year relation_type
40 Cuba [(1902, 1906), (1909, 9999)] [230, 2, 2] [(1816, 1898), (1898, 1902), (1906, 1909)] [3, 4, 4]
  • Contemporary Cuba has the numeric code 40
  • It was independent from 1902 to 1906 and 1909 until today (9999)
  • Throughout time, it had three relations:
    • [1] From 1816 to 1898, it was a "colony of" (relation_type: 3) Spain (numerical code in related_list: 230)
    • [2] From 1898 to 1902, it was "occupied by" (relation_type: 4) United States of America (numerical code in related_list: 2)
    • [3] From 1906 to 1909, it was "occupied by" (relation_type: 4) United States of America (numerical code in related_list: 2)

WeSIS recognizes data for the entire period. The data provider has to ensure that data for years outside independence is actually attributable to the focal entity, though.

The following types of relationship are coded from COW's "Entity" list:

  1. (Became) part of
  2. (Became) possession of
  3. (Became) colony of
  4. Occupied by
  5. (Became) protectorate
  6. Mandated to
  7. Leased to
  8. (Became) neutral or demilitarized

The table contains two exceptional notations:

  • [(0, 0)] means the entity existed - so data may be attributable - but never was independent.
  • [(9999)] means "until today".

Entity codes

The table lists all entities that WeSIS recognizes with their numerical code. The codes derive from the COW scheme with some adjustments necessary to the fit the analytical scope of WeSIS. It contains information about the years when an entity was or is independent, records related entities, the type of relation and corresponding time frames. The column "pop_over_500k" is a dummy indicating whether the contemporary entity has a population over 500.000 (=1), or not (=0) in 2016 (Source: Worldbank 2019). It was used for setting priorities in terms of data collection. The columns "alt_names" and "remark" give name changes and note any deviances and changes from the original COW scheme. Finally, the table includes links to Wikipedia for more information about an entity and its history. This way, the list eases finding the proper numeric code when coding data for a certain entity and point in time.

To avoid ambiguity of COW's country and IO codes, we kept the original COW IGO code but added a leading "9" to arrive at a five-digit code above the numerical range of "countries". The International Labour Organization's COW code "2830", for example, thus becomes "92830". This way, IO codes can still be back traced.

Please use the search bar to the right to filter the table when looking for specific entity codes, "country names" or related entities. See above for an example of "reading" a row.
