=====================================================================
What's New
- Country information has been updated as of 10 February, 2005.
- There have been some significant changes to the latest edition of The World Factbook. 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. The European Union continues to accrue more nation-like characteristics
for itself and so a separate listing was deemed appropriate. A fuller explanation may be found under the European
Union Preliminary statement.
- Along with the new entities and the regular information updates, The World Factbook now also features five new
fields. In the Economy category, entries have been added for Current account balance, Investment (gross fixed),
Public debt, and Reserves of foreign exchange and gold. The Transnational issues category has a new Refugees
and internally displaced persons entry.
- Revision of some individual country maps, first introduced in the 2001 edition, is continued in this edition. Several
regional maps have also been updated to reflect boundary changes and place name spelling changes.
The World Factbook 2004 printed version provides a "snapshot" of the world as of 1 January, 2004.
