ColonialStatus:
class_uri: hc:ColonialStatus
description: 'Structured representation of colonial/territorial status for geographic coverage.
**PURPOSE**:
Models colonial territories and their historical status in archival finding aids.
Captures both the geographic territory and its colonial relationship over time.
**DESIGN RATIONALE**:
Created per slot_fixes.yaml migration from simple `colonial` string slot to
structured class with temporal and geographic context.
The revision specifies:
- `includes_or_included` + `GeoSpatialPlace` for territory geometry
- `is_or_was_categorized_as` + `ColonialStatus` for categorization
**USE CASES**:
- Dutch East Indies archives (1602-1949)
- Belgian Congo documentation
- British Colonial Office records
- Portuguese overseas territories
**PROVENANCE CONSIDERATIONS**:
Colonial status is historically contingent and politically sensitive.
Always capture:
- Time period of colonial relationship
- Perspective (colonizer vs. colonized)
- Modern-day geographic equivalent
