Geography

The CIA World Factbook is a well established resource of geographical information on just about every country in the world. It was available before the introduction of the world wide web. Since moving on to the web it is now extremely easy to navigate. The whole of the world fact book section is free to use and a free complete download is available.

Now, the CIA World factbook is presented in static text and pictures format containing a mass of facts and figures. It's interesting enough just reading it. BUT - you may ask - Wouldn't it be even more interesting to be a able to have charts and diagrams to compare all the facts and figures? There is a site called nationmaster.com which allows you to do just that!
