## Usage

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("electricsheepafrica/africa-worldbank-wbl-legal-framework-assets-score-scale-0-100-gd-wbl-ast-law-t")
df = ds["train"].to_pandas()
print(df.head())
```

### Filter to one country

```python
kenya = df[df["country_iso3"] == "KEN"]
```

### Time-series for a single indicator

```python
sample = (df[df["indicator_id"] == "GD_WBL_AST_LAW_T"]
          .sort_values("year"))
sample.plot(x="year", y="value", title="GD_WBL_AST_LAW_T")
```

### Pivot to country × year matrix

```python
matrix = (df[df["indicator_id"] == "GD_WBL_AST_LAW_T"]
          .pivot_table(index="year", columns="country_iso3", values="value"))
print(matrix.tail())
```
