Zeev Maoz' Regional/Global Power Data

Description

These are Zeev Maoz' data for what states are regional or global powers at a given point time. They are extensions of the Correlates of War major power data, which only codes "major" power without consideration of regional or global distinctions. Think of Austria-Hungary as intuitive of the issue here. Austria-Hungary is a major power in the Correlates of War data, but there is good reason to treat Austria-Hungary as a major power only within Europe. That is what Zeev Maoz tries to do here.
