The coders were asked to assess "[o]ver what percentage (%) of the territory does the state have effective control?" in order "to judge the extent of recognition of the preeminent authority of the state over its territory" (Coppedge et al. 2021, 188). For a detailed clarification see Coppedge et al. 2021, 188.
