These variables were content-coded from those articles in the constitution texts that refer directly and explicitly to ‘religion’ and ‘nation’. Countries covered in the data set needed to both be officially recognized by the UN and have a written, single-document constitution in order to be included. The countries not included (for different reasons throughout the list) are: Canada, Congo, Israel, Kosovo, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, San Marino, Saudi Arabia, South Sudan, Sudan, Taiwan and the United Kingdom. The most recent text versions of constitutions considered here where those of the end of 2016, i.e., we are looking at a snapshot of the included constitutions as the stood in 2016. The analysed constitution texts were all pulled from <a href="https://constituteproject.org">constituteproject.org </a>, which provided us with the English translations for all countries (except Congo, which is not available in English and thus was excluded from our data set).The RNCw-Data Set comprises multiple variables relating to the role of national identity and of religion in the national constitutions of 189 countries worldwide.
