Search Instructions

This database contains almost all referenda from 1791 to present on national level, i. e. of all independent countries and autonomous areas. This definition is a bit fuzzy but local only referenda like those of US states are not part of it.

All data entries are in German but the common descriptive labels of the entries themselves are available in English, too (see below).

But beware: keywords for the search mask must be entered in German. If the fields "country, area" or "subject" yield no results it is advisable to limit the search to years.

  • Empty form : all referenda of this year
  • Area or subject only : all years are searched
  • Enter year with four digits but without month or day
  • One year only : into field "begin"
  • Fields are not case sensitive
