DESCRIPTION:We construct a database linking European royal kinship networks
 \, monarchies\, and wars to study the effect of family ties on conflict. To
  establish causality\, we exploit decreases in connection caused by apoliti
 cal deaths of rulers' mutual relatives. These deaths are associated with su
 bstantial increases in the frequency and duration of war. We provide eviden
 ce that these deaths affect conflict only through changing the kinship netw
 ork. Over our period of interest\, the percentage of European monarchs with
  kinship ties increased threefold. Together\, these findings help explain t
 he well-documented decrease in European war frequency.\\n\\nContact: Nicola
