#' Create leader-dyad-years from the Archigos data
#'
#' @description
#'
#' \code{create_leaderdyadyears()} allows you to created leader dyad-year data
#' from the Archigos data first introduced and described by Goemans et al.
#' (2009).
#'
#' @return
#'
#' \code{create_leaderdyadyears()} takes remote data available for separate
#' download and returns a complete leader dyad-year data frame for all leaders,
#' and all possible dyads, from 1870 to 2015.
#'
#' @details
#'
#' This is a *complete* and *universal* leader dyad-year data frame for all
#' possible dyadic leader pairings from 1870 to 2015. This has several
#' implications. First: these data are enormous. The output is over 2 million
#' rows long! Second: the time required to create these data from scratch would
#' take too long for a normal function call. This amounts to an unholy
#' combination of data that are too large for CRAN's disk space restrictions
#' (5 MB) and too time-consuming to do from scratch every time. Thus, the
#' data are pre-generated and stored remotely. Check [download_extdata()] for
#' more information.

#' @param system a character specifying whether the user wants Correlates of War
#' state-years ("cow") or Gleditsch-Ward ("gw") state-years. Gleditsch-Ward is the
#' default.
#' @param directed optional, defaults to TRUE. If TRUE, the function returns
#' so-called "directed" leader dyad-year data. If FALSE, the function returns
#' non-directed data where the state codes for the second leader are all greater
#' than the state codes for the second leader.
