Four spreadsheets cover annual data from 1800-2010 with 7 or 8 time series per country. Five series date a variety of Reinhart-Rogoff (RR) financial crises (banking, currency, domestic and external default or restructuring, and inflation) for all 70 countries. Stock market crashes are included for a smaller set of countries subject to equity price data availability. The last two series are a yearly tally of crises "varieties" and a dummy variable indicating the year of independence (if applicable). An insert table for each country also dates the largest recorded output declines, as discussed in Reinhart's (2010) country-by-country Chartbook; the tables reflect the most recent updates. Historical default probabilities and dates of hyperinflation episodes and IMF programs (if applicable) are also included. A synopsis of the methodology used to date the crises is included in each of the spreadsheets.
