The data displayed or analyzed with country data analysis sub-options are for all countries in the IFs database. The database is contained mostly in the MS Access file IFsHistSeries.mdb and secondarily in IFsWVSCohort.mdb.
The database contains data for 164 countries (soon expanding to 182), not just for the more limited number of countries/regions in the forecast (.run) files. The data displayed are mostly in time series that begin in 1960 (in a few cases earlier) and continue to the most recent year for which data are available. The database is very large, comes from very disparate sources across the issue areas of IFs, and is constantly evolving.
For information on the database, including file structure and data sources, see the Reports section of the IFs project web site for the document, The Database of International Futures. The data dictionary file DataDict.mdb is distributed with IFs in the Data subdirectory and contains considerable information on each data series. It is also possible to see selected information on each series by selecting the Data Availability pop-up option associated with each specific series in the Cross-Sectional analysis window (under Country Data Analysis).
