Data for Is Africa different? historical conflict and state development
Listed in figshare
We show new evidence that the consequences of historical warfare for state development differ for Sub-Saharan Africa.
Description
We identify the locations of more than 1,600 conflicts in Africa, Asia, and Europe from 1400 to 1799. We find that historical warfare predicts common-interest states defined by high fiscal capacity and low civil conflict across much of the Old World.
For Sub-Saharan Africa, historical warfare predicts special-interest states defined by high fiscal capacity and high civil conflict. Our results offer new evidence about where and when ‘war makes states’.<br><br>Data record consists of 3 tabular data files and one STATA do file.
