World Factbook, Second Edition (Firefly)
Special sidebars, “Did You Know,” offer interesting and intriguing facts. For example, Icelanders do not have family names and are properly addressed by their first names; Panama hats are made in Ecuador, not Panama; and Germany was the first country to build freeways.

Firefly’s World Factbook is a ready resource of information for the home or office — an A-Z reference guide to every country in the world.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
