Developed & Maintained by Lloyd C.
Russow The purpose of this "Country List" page is to
identify the countries, territories, regional groupings, and categories of nations for which links are provided on the Country &
Regional Data pages (the main page, as well as regional and
individual country data pages). [Fast scroll to
description of Region Data page and Individual Country Data
page.] 'ALL' COUNTRIES: This is the main "Country Data" page. The data resources on this page tend to provide general data, or data on specific topics for most nations and territories in the world.

The resources contain a breadth of data (many countries), sometimes in broad categories (e.g., the economy), other times in very narrow areas (addresses of patent offices in each country).

For example, 'former communist countries,' newly independent,' and 'developing,' developed' and 'industrialized' nations).

The names and number of member countries are usually described in one or more of the listed resources.

INDIVIDUAL:
The "Individual Country Data"
page includes resources that focus on a particular country. The first
resources provided on the individual country data page are to the official statistical offices of many
of the world's nations. The other resources on this page are additional resources that may
focus on a specific topic within a particular nation. This is a good place
to start if you are looking for detailed information about a specific country. The resources on this page do not collect, analyze and present
the data the same way. For this reason you should not rely on these
resources when comparing countries. Countries and territories included on this page are: When comparing nations, use the 'ALL Country Data" (go there).
