Territorial Changes, 1816–1996: Procedures and Data

Abstract

This article identifies the general criteria for inclusion of cases in the territorial change data set and describes basic patterns on some relevant dimensions of territorial changes. The data set, which identifies and codes all territorial changes involving at least one nation-state (as defined by the Correlates of War project), has been updated to cover the period from 1816 through 1996. Using these general criteria, we were able to identify 817 territorial changes over the period studied.
