The country / jurisdiction names are from those included in the underlying sources. The dataset includes some jurisdictions that are under the control of other jurisdictions within the dataset. Mostly such jurisdictions are overseas possessions of particular countries. However, separate records also exist for other overlapping jurisdictions, e.g. United Kingdom: England & Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. Use the rt field in the dataset to avoid double-counting overlapping jurisdictions. The crosswalk dataset is meant to be used with a relational database or similar database technology.
