General government spending as share of GDP, excluding transfers already captured under fiscal.transfer_expansion to avoid double-counting.
Taxation of capital income (dividends, capital gains, inheritance, wealth). Distinct from corporate rate.
The 1913 army bill sharply expanded the imperial army in the final prewar build-up, while the accompanying Wehrbeitrag imposed a one-off levy on larger fortunes to help finance the package. The combined measure is a useful policy bundle because it joined militarised state expansion to an explicitly extraordinary tax on wealth: Germany did not rely on small-state finance here, but on a larger fiscal-military commitment under intensifying European rivalry.
Per invariant 3, reforms are scored by what they did on each channel-separated axis, not by the party that enacted them. This fingerprint is how the policy-match engine finds historical analogues.
Explicit links are curated by the author. Inferred links are hypotheses in the library that test the same axes this policy moved — the framework's answer to "what does the data say about a policy like this?".
Ranked by axis-fingerprint overlap with this policy. Direction match bolded — those are the closest historical analogues. Shape of the match is what drives policy-outcome comparison, not the country or party label.
