Dear Eric:
Thank you for such an informative meeting yesterday. Your work is great.
Attached is *data on geographic regions*: here codes are numbers (400s &
500s are Africa, 600s are Middle East, 700s and 800s are Asia and Oceania,
200s Europe, etc). These data come from the Correlates of War
project, which has all kinds of data of interest.
Here is a link to *colonial dependency data*:

And the Varieties of Democracy project has data on a variety of
country-level *regime characteristics,* including judicial independence, a
democracy score (it is an index and we need to use just a composite index
of democracy):

Attached is the data on *domestic legal systems* (civil, common, Islamic
law, and mixed law)

These are some awesome datasets and I think they will all be useful to
contextualize the trends we are seeing in constitutional values.

I am looking forward to the next meeting,
Emilia
