#' Centred government expenditure centralization (GEC) ratios
#'
#'
#' The data includes the government expenditure centralization (GEC) ratio in percent that has been
#' centred with respect to country average in order to remove the differences in absolute values of
#' GEC.
#' The GEC ratio is the ratio of central government expenditure to the total general government expenditure.
#' Data were collected from the Eurostat (2018) database.
#' Only those European countries were included, where the data were available from 1995 to 2016 without
#' interruption. Finally, 29 countries were classified into three groups in the following way:
#' \itemize{
#' \item Group 1: Countries joining EC between 1958 and 1986 (Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany
#' (until 1990 former territory of the FRG), Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Portugal,
#' Spain, United Kingdom. These countries have long history of European integration, representing the
#' core of integration process.
#' \item Group 2: Countries joining the EU in 1995 (Austria, Sweden, Finland) and 2004 (Malta, Cyprus),
#' except CEEC (separate group), plus highly economically integrated non-EU countries, EFTA members
#' (Norway, Switzerland). Countries in this group have been, or in some case even still are standing
#' apart from the integration mainstream. Their level of economic integration is however very high.
#' \item Group 3: Central and Eastern European Countries (CEEC), having similar features in political
#' end economic history. The process of economic and political integration have been initiated by
#' political changes in 1990s. CEEC joined the EU in 2004 and 2007 (Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia,
#' Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, data for Croatia joining in 2013 are
#' incomplete, therefore not included).

#' This grouping is used in examples.

#' @format A list of two components. The first one is the \code{curve_set} object containing the observed
#' values of centred GEC observed in year 1995-2016 for the above countries.
#' The second component \code{group} gives the grouping.
