Description

Definition
REGNSS indicates the regions (wilayaat) in South Sudan in which the household was enumerated. Regions are the largest-scale geographic identifier of the country. REGNSS is harmonized by name and does not account for boundary changes over time.

The full set of geography variables for South Sudan can be found in the IPUMS International Geography variables list. For cross-national geographic analysis on the first and second major administrative level refer to GEOLEV1 and GEOLEV2. More information on IPUMS-International geography can be found here.
