The Global Terrorism Database includes information on terrorist events around the World (205 countries, more than 33000 cities, from 1970 through 2016 on at least 45 variables for each case, with more recent incidents including information on more than 120 variables.

• Geography: Worldwide

• Time period: 1970-2016, except 1993

• Unit of analysis: Attack

• Variables: >100 variables on location, tactics, perpetrators, targets, and outcomes

• Sources: Unclassified media articles

You can find the whole report https://mef-bda503.github.io/gpj-datING_/GTD/GTD_Final.html

• The purpose of the analysis is to understand the Turkey's Terorism Statistics on the basis of the cities, districts, dates, seasons etc.

• Try to define the factors that influence the terror attacks in Turkey.

• A clear understanding of the data to see if we can locate useful insights about where and when terror attacks occur in Turkey.

• To create an opinion on the relatively risky and secure regions based on past experience, by in-depth analysis of the terrorist attacks in Turkey, also to see relatively safe and risky periods during the year.

The data set that will use in this project and initial exploratory data analysis on it consists of 4,106 observations and 27 variables.
