The Global Geopolitical Events Database compiles 833,485 major bilateral political events between all 193 UN member states from 1950 to 2024. Using large language models to systematically analyze and classify events, we construct dynamic measures of bilateral geopolitical alignment that capture the timing and intensity of international relationships. Each event is coded using the Conflict and Mediation Event Observations (CAMEO) framework and assigned Goldstein Scale scores (−10 to +10), enabling precise measurement of cooperation and conflict over seven decades.
