411765 military_expenditure   Our team builds and maintains a long-run dataset on military expenditure by country, region, and for the world, based on two key sources: - 1816 to 2016: National Material Capabilities dataset, Correlates of War Project, https://correlatesofwar.org/data-sets/national-material-capabilities - 2017 onwards: SIPRI Military Expenditure Database, Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), https://www.sipri.org/databases/milex For the period 1816 to 1913, expenditures in the Correlates of War project are expressed in current-year British Pounds. Values are transformed to current-year US Dollars based on exchanges rates downloaded from the MeasuringWorth project: Lawrence H. Officer, 'Dollar-Pound Exchange Rate From 1791,' MeasuringWorth, 2022. URL: https://www.measuringworth.com/datasets/exchangepound/ Expenditure is adjusted for inflation and expressed in 2020 US Dollars. Prices are adjusted over time based on the annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the United States since 1914, downloaded from the MeasuringWorth project: Lawrence H. Officer and Samuel H. Williamson, "The Annual Consumer Price Index for the United States, 1774-Present," MeasuringWorth, 2022.
