Datasets often give us country names without the corresponding country code (ccode). This makes it a total pain to merge with other datasets. I’ve written a do file that will automatically fill in the ccode. To add the country codes, first rename the country variable to “country” (probably unnecessary – it’s likely already named “country”). Next, add the following to your Stata command line:
do https://www.uky.edu/~clthyn2/replace_ccode_country.do
The command should generate a new variable called “ccode” with the correct ccodes. I update the do file every time I see a country spelled a different way. Please let me know if you find any errors or omissions (clayton.thyne@uky.edu).
In case you’re using R or something like that, it’s probably easiest to just merge in the ccodes. For that, use the excel version here (though I haven’t updated it yet with the changes needed for Gleditsch/Ward or Polity). |
