What this archive can vouch for
The verification ledger
Every public record here carries a confidence grade, and most carry a source a reader can follow. This is that count, per country — graded A or B means independent or primary evidence, sourced means a followable citation on the record, checked means a person or source confirmed it within the last year. A low number is a research queue, not a secret.
| Country | Public records | Graded A/B | Sourced | Checked this year |

| Ethiopia | 12 | 11 · 92% | 12 · 100% | 1 · 8% |
| other (14 places) | 35 | 16 · 46% | 24 · 69% | 12 · 34% |
