Actors, as UCDP names them
Names as UCDP writes them. The glossary has the UCDP definition of an actor and of a dyad.
| Name, as UCDP writes it | Events | Estimated deaths in these events |
|---|---|---|
| Actor not identified by UCDP | 11P | 15P |
An event has two sides, so one event can be in two rows. The deaths are the deaths in the events of a side. The table does not say which side caused a death. Names are as UCDP writes them, with two labels that the site writes. UCDP does not identify some actors: the site writes "Actor not identified by UCDP" for each of them. UCDP names some groups for a person: the site writes "Group named for a person (name not shown)" for each of them. A line with a label can hold more than one actor.
| Dyad, as UCDP writes it | Events | Estimated deaths |
|---|---|---|
| Actor not identified by UCDP - Actor not identified by UCDP | 11P | 15P |
