We release our named entities for 1340 languages, 1134 of which are lowest-resource. It mainly contains people and location NEs. The total number of NEs is 674,493, so there are 503 NEs per language on average with at least 300 names in 95% of the languages. The three best represented families are the Austronesian, Niger-Congo, and Indo-European ones. However, our coverage broadly includes all major areas of linguistic diversity, including Amazonian (e.g., Kaingang), African (e.g., Sango) and Papua New Guinea (e.g., Saniyo-Hiyewe).
