KEDS - The Kansas Event Data System uses automated coding of English-language news reports to generate political event data focusing on the Middle East, Balkans, and West Africa. These data are used in statistical early warning models to predict political change. The ten-year project is based in the Department of Political Science at the University of Kansas; it has been funded primarily by the U.S. National Science Foundation.

Gulf data set: This data set covers the states of the Gulf region and the Arabian peninsula for the period 15 April 1979 to 31 March 1999. The source texts prior to 10 June 97 were located using a NEXIS search command specifically designed to return relevant data. There are two versions of the data: a set coded from the lead sentences only (57,000 events), and a set coded from full stories (304,000 events).
There are some errors in the GulfAll data. Events 118196 and 118197 have REUT-0 in place of the date; and in event 173526 the first actor is missing. In Gulf99All.dat the wrong dates are replaced with 890319, and the incomplete event is skiped.

Levant data set: Folder containing WEIS-coded events (N=196,337) for dyadic interactions within the following set of countries: Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestinians, Syria, USA, and USSR/Russia. Coverage is April 1979 to June 2004. TABARI coding dictionaries are also included.
There are some errors (333) in data set - relation codes 012], O24, O53, 213] are replaced with012, 024, 053, 213 in Levant.dat. Some events don't have description codes - they are marked with *** in relation labels in *.net files.

Balkans data set, 1989-2003: Folder containing WEIS-coded events (N = 78,667) for the major actors (including ethnic groups) involved in the conflicts in the former Yugoslavia. Coverage is April 1989 through July 2003. TABARI coding dictionaries are included in the folder.
There are some errors (197) in data set - relation codes ---], O24, O53 are replaced with 000, 024, 053 in Balkan.dat. Some events don't have description codes - they are marked with ***in relation labels in *.net files.
