TL;DR
This dataset is part of the Electric Sheep Africa catalog on Hugging Face. It is indexed for African data discovery with standardized metadata, loading guidance, provenance notes, and analyst-oriented context.
What This Dataset Covers
Public datasets help analysts inspect structured evidence, build reproducible workflows, and compare patterns across domains.
Dataset context from the existing Hugging Face card: Kingdom of Eswatini - Data on Conflict Events Publisher: HDX · Source: HDX · License: cc-by-igo · Updated: 2025-03-10 Abstract This dataset is UCDP's most disaggregated dataset, covering individual events of organized violence (phenomena of lethal violence occurring at a given time and place). These events are sufficiently fine-grained to be geo-coded down to the level of individual villages, with temporal durations disaggregated to single, individual days.Sundberg… See the full description on the dataset page: https://huggingface.co/datasets/electricsheepafrica/africa-ucdp-data-for-kingdom-of-eswatini.

How To Read This Dataset
- Start from the repository files and the dataset viewer when available.
- Treat the README context as a fast orientation layer; confirm variable definitions and units in the data files before modeling.
- Use explicit country columns when present. When geography is only implied by the title or source metadata, document that assumption in downstream analysis.
- Preserve missing values until you have a defensible imputation rule.
Usage
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("electricsheepafrica/africa-ucdp-data-for-kingdom-of-eswatini")
print(ds)
split_name = next(iter(ds))
table = ds[split_name]
print(table.features)
print(table[:3])
Convert To Pandas When Tabular
from datasets import Dataset
first_split = ds[next(iter(ds))]
if isinstance(first_split, Dataset):
df = first_split.to_pandas()
print(df.head())
Data Quality Notes
- This card was standardized from the Electric Sheep Africa Hugging Face metadata inventory.
- Exact schema, row counts, and source files should be inspected in the repository data files.
- Metadata gaps from the inventory: upstream_publisher.
- Do not infer policy meaning from labels alone; confirm definitions, units, and methods in the source material.
