"We show that the consequences of historical warfare for state development differ for\r\nSub-Saharan Africa. We identify the locations of more than 1,500 conflicts in Africa, Asia,\r\nand Europe from 1400 to 1799. We find that historical warfare predicts common-interest\r\nstates defined by high fiscal capacity and low civil conflict across much of the OldWorld.\r\nFor Sub-Saharan Africa, historical warfare predicts special-interest states defined by high\r\nfiscal capacity and high civil conflict. Our results offer new evidence about where and\r\nwhen “war makes states.”"^^ . "2015-08" . . "8" . . "IMT Institute for Advanced Studies Lucca"^^ . . . . . . . . . . . . "James"^^ . "Fenske"^^ .
