| | The World Factbook - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | As The World Factbook is prepared by the CIA for the use of U.S. Government officials, the style, format, coverage, and content are designed to meet their specific requirements. | | | Thus, inclusion of basic intelligence on the EU has been deemed appropriate as a new, separate entity in The World Factbook. | | | As an official publication of the United States government, the factbook lists the official policy of the United States government as 'fact' often with little more than a footnote to indicate that the fact is disputed or that a contrary position exists. |

| | The CIA World Factbook |
| | To be overly concerned would be somewhat "delusional" as it would assume that this "factbook" is the most important source for information regarding other countries around the world. | | | Sound economic policies, first implemented by the Pinochet dictatorship, led to unprecedented growth in 1991-97 and have helped secure the country's commitment to democratic and representative government (The World Factbook). | | | <18> The site most like The World Factbook is a page entitled "Country Profiles," located on the United Kingdom's Foreign and Commonwealth Office site. |

| | CIA - The World Factbook -- FAQs |
| | The World Factbook provides national-level information on countries, territories, and dependencies, but not on subnational administrative units within a country or supranational entities like the European Union. | | | GDP dollar estimates in The World Factbook are derived from purchasing power parity (PPP) calculations. | | | The BGN is a component of the US Government that develops policies, principles, and procedures governing the spelling, use, and application of geographic names—domestic, foreign, Antarctic, and undersea. |

| | The online Factbook is updated periodically throughout the year. | | | Recent confirmation that the United Kingdom Government administers the Sovereign Base Areas of Akrotiri and Dhekelia on Cyprus as dependencies (and not as lease areas like the US Guantanamo Bay Naval Station in Cuba) has required a changing of their status and their addition to the Factbook as new entities. | | | In addition, the European Union has been included as an "Other" entity at the end of the listing. |

| | Detailing the standards that individual countries use to assess the ability to read and write is beyond the scope of the Factbook. | | | Low levels of literacy, and education in general, can impede the economic development of a country in the current rapidly changing, technology-driven world. | | | The Factbook is produced by the Central Intelligence Agency to provide comprehensive basic intelligence for the US Government. |

| | CIA - The World Factbook 2002 -- Serbia and Montenegro |
| | An agreement rescheduling the country's $4.5 billion Paris Club government debts was concluded in November 2001; it will write off 66% of the debt and provide a basis for Belgrade to seek similar debt relief on its $2.8 billion London Club commercial debt. | | | Since the ousting of former Federal Yugoslav President MILOSEVIC in October 2000, the Democratic Opposition of Serbia (DOS) coalition government has implemented stabilization measures and embarked on an aggressive market reform program. | | | A World Bank-European Commission sponsored Donors' Conference held in June 2001 raised $1.3 billion for economic restructuring. |

| | One important caution: the proportion of, say, defense expenditures as a percentage of GDP in local currency accounts may differ substantially from the proportion when GDP accounts are expressed in PPP terms, as, for example, when an observer tries to estimate the dollar level of Russian or Japanese military expenditures. | | | Note: The numbers for GDP and other economic data can not be chained together from successive volumes of the Factbook because of changes in the US dollar measuring rod, revisions of data by statistical agencies, use of new or different sources of information, and changes in national statistical methods and practices. | | | The Handbook can be obtained wherever The World Factbook is available. |
