+# Europe expansion batch, 28 October 2026
+
+Chosen from `node scripts/country-gaps.cjs --rank 25 --region Europe`: Northern Cyprus,
+Kosovo, Croatia, Romania and Moldova. Existing country sections and penalty tables are already
+substantial; this pass prioritises primary-source history, articles and concrete profile gaps.
+Other agents' changes in `source-archive.json` and their research notes are excluded.
+
+| Country | Done | Left | Commit |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Northern Cyprus | Original 1925 statute read; precise date; first-restriction article; 1956 consolidation added for north and Cyprus | 1930s–1940s, 1960s, 1980s–2000s still thin; seed trade and drug-driving trigger unverified | This country's commit |
+| Kosovo | Pending | | |
+| Croatia | Pending | | |

+## Northern Cyprus source limits
+
+The 1925 law itself prohibits cannabis imports/exports and delegates growing/possession/supply
+controls to regulations. The exact commencement and scope of those original regulations remain
+open; the existing editorial score vector is retained, rather than assigning new steps without
+the regulations. The 1956 event records consolidation, without inferring a new score change from
+its text alone. Current 1972 consolidated sections 3–8 and current official legislative-index
+search were checked; no verified current adult-use reform was found. No speculative seed-trade
+or driving classification was added. The original 1956 statute is also relevant to Cyprus, so
+its contextual event is recorded there too.
