Comments

There's an issue with the UTF-8 encoding of this data set (I checked both the CSV and Excel versions and found the same issue). The issue seems to affect all columns with non-ASCII content. The issue was probably caused by taking a file that was already in UTF-8 format, interpreting it as ASCII/ANSI and converting it to UTF-8 again. An example entry is Curaçao (FID country_centroids_az8.53) - the name is wrongly given as "CuraÃƒÂ§ao". One way to fix this is to open the CSV file, convert it from UTF-8 to ANSI, and then open the converted file as UTF-8.
