This article identifies the general criteria for inclusion of cases in the territorial change data set and describes basic patterns on some relevant dimensions of territorial changes. The data set, which identifies and codes all territorial changes involving at least one nation-state (as defined by the Correlates of War project), has been updated to cover the period from 1816 through 1996. Using these general criteria, we were able to identify 817 territorial changes over the period studied.

This research note summarizes version 3.0 of the Correlates of War Direct Contiguity data set, which covers the geographic proximity of all directly contiguous states in the international system during the period 1816-2000. After a brief discussion of the role that geographic proximity plays in international relations, the coding rules and procedures used for this data set are reviewed. The changes and additions to this updated version of the data are then explained. This note concludes with a basic statistical summary of the updated data set
