Coding rules
We consider a ministry of education to be a government agency specifically designed for the governance and/or management of public education. It needs to be directly subordinated to the government. That means that e.g. a department of education formed in the ministry of social affairs would not be considered as a ministry created and therefore not coded. Note that only the year of first introduction is relevant. Reorganization e.g. forming a ministry of higher education and a separate ministry of basic education is not coded.
