Description:	<P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P>The European State Finance Database (ESFD) is an international collaborative research project for the collection of data in European fiscal history. There are no strict geographical or chronological boundaries to the collection, although data for this collection comprise the period between c.1200 to c.1815. The purpose of the ESFD was to establish a significant database of European financial and fiscal records. The data are drawn from the main extant sources of a number of European countries, as the evidence and the state of scholarship permit. The aim was to collect the data made available by scholars, whether drawing upon their published or unpublished archival research, or from other published material. <br> The ESFD project at the University of Leicester serves also to assist scholars working with the data by providing statistical manipulations of data and high quality graphical outputs for publication. The broad aim of the project was to act as a facilitator for a general methodological and statistical advance in the area of European fiscal history, with data capture and the interpretation of data in key publications as the measurable indicators of that advance. The data were originally deposited at the UK Data Archive in SAS transport format and as ASCII files; however, data files in this new edition have been saved as tab delimited files. Furthermore, this new edition features documentation in the form of a single file containing essential data file metadata, source details and notes of interest for particular files.<br> <B>Main Topics</B>:<BR> The files in this dataset relate to the files held in the Leicester database in the directory /rjb/*.*.<br> File Information<br> g138cod1.* Direct taxation in the pays d'elections, 1594-1647<br> g138cod2.* Direct taxation in the generalites of Chalons, Caen and Rouen, 1597-1643<br> g138eld1.* Levy of the taille in the election of Paris, 1615-1787<br> g138elm1.* Value in millions of hectolitres of wheat of levy of taille in the election of Paris, 1615-1787<br> g138elm2.* The levy of taille in the election of Paris and in the generalites of Chalons, Caen and Rouen, 1597-1643<br> g138fd01.* Direct taxation from the pays d'elections and the pays d'impositions, 1789<br> g138fd02.* Total French expenditure, 1801-1844<br> g138fd03.* Total French expenditure, 1815-1849<br> g138fd04.* French revenues, 1815-1849<br> g138fd05.* French government expenditure, 1815-1850<br> g138fd06.* French government revenues from taxation, 1815-1850<br> g138fd07.* The value of the taille in France, 1461-1609<br> g138fd08.* Life rents and tontines, 1733-1788<br> g138fd09.* Estimates of direct taxes and surtaxes collected in France, 1792-1829<br> g138fd10.* Retrospective budgets of the Ancien Regime; Etats au vrai of the Ancien Regime<br> g138fd11.* Central government revenues and expenditures, 1727-1768<br> g138fm01.* The value of the taille in France, 1461-1609, in millions of hectolitres of wheat, harvest and calendar years<br> g138fm02.* Revenue from direct taxation, total taxation and total revenue in France, 1815-29<br> g138ged1.* Repartition of the taille between elections of the generalite of Paris, 1688-1712<br> <br> Please note: this study does not include information on named individuals and would therefore not be useful for personal family history research.<br> <br>
