Planned as a triennial, Encyclopedia of the World's Nations replaces three Facts On File publications: Encyclopedia of the First World (1990), Encyclopedia of the Second World (1991), and Encyclopedia of the Third World (1992). Its volumes contain entries for 190 independent countries. Each entry includes a map and a basic fact summary and covers major aspects of national life such as geography, climate, environment, economy, politics, legal system, ethnicity, and languages. The amount of statistical information for each country naturally varies, and some of the categories are simply left blank when the information is unavailable. Each entry also includes a bibliography, chronology, list of official publications, contact information, and a list of Internet resources. The bibliographies and lists of Internet resources are welcome inclusions. The third volume provides a useful index. The set contains some errors. For example, the title of the hereditary ruler of Liechtenstein is given as prince con und zu Liechtenstein rather than prince von und zu Liechtenstein, and the entry for Qatar gives the date for independence as 1981, although the correct date, 1971, is found in the chronology.
Encyclopedia of the World's Nations is one of many in a competitive field of reference sources. Similar information is available free online from the Library of Congress Country Studies [http://lcweb2.loc.gov/frd/cs/] and the CIA World Factbook [http://www.odci.gov/cia/publications/factbook/index.html]. Among print sources, The Europa World Year Book offers more comprehensive coverage that includes territories and dependencies, not just independent countries. Other print sources include the standard Worldmark Encyclopedia of the Nations (Gale, 10th ed., 2000) and Statesman's Year Book (Palgrave), which is also available as an online subscription database called SYBWorld [RBB Ja 1 & 15 03]. Encyclopedia of the World's Nations is a good effort, but it doesn't supersede or replace other print tools and reliable resources available online.
