URL Title: CIA World Factbook
URL Category: Reference
URL Description: The CIA maintains a detailed, encyclopedic dossier on every country, recognized island group, and certain regions. Each entry contains information about population, economic condition, trade, conflicts, and politics. There's lots of stuff you won't find here-such as the number of nuclear warheads aimed at the Pentagon. But there is information important to travelers, like weather, natural hazards, and severe weather seasons. There is also a good weights and measures table, a list of United Nations bodies, and a list of international organizations and groups. |
