As I’m planning my round the world trip next year, I thought I should at least know basic history of the countries I plan to visit. I came across these resources and thought I’d share them.
- THE WORLD FACTBOOK by CIA is amazing.
“The World Factbook provides basic intelligence on the history, people, government, economy, energy, geography, environment, communications, transportation, military, terrorism, and transnational issues for 266 world entities.” – THE WORLD FACTBOOK HP
All the information I wanted to know are all on the website! Even the types of outlets for each country are shown on it, SO HELPFUL!
- 読むだけで世界地図が頭に入る本 世界212の国と地域が2時間でわかる is a great book.
This book is written in Japanese. Like the world factbook, the basic information of every country in the world is written. One page on one country.
Planning makes me so excited!✈️
