Description
The State-Seeking Nationalist Movements (SSNM) database includes two unique datasets for the world-historical analysis of nationalism. The first dataset (SSNM Dataset 1) includes articles reporting on state-seeking nationalist activities throughout the world from 1804 to 2013 using international news reports. The second dataset (SSNM Dataset 2) is compiled from secondary sources and it includes revolutionary situations and conflicts involving state-seeking movements from 1492 to 1829.
