| | The World Factbook - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The factbook often highlights diplomatic disputes that are recognized by the United States but yet ignores or downplays disputes that are not favored by the government's foreign policies. | | | Besides the World Factbook, the CIA puts out a directory of Chiefs of State and Cabinet Members of Foreign Governments each week. | | | The factbook contains many peculiarities resulting from the diplomatic policies of the United States and does not always take a neutral point of view. |

| | The CIA, acting on behalf of the United States government, was heavily involved in the ousting of the above-mentioned "three-year-old Marxist government" which, at the time, was led by democratically elected Salvador Allende [3]. | | | A three-year-old Marxist government was overthrown in 1973 by a dictatorial military regime led by Augusto Pinochet, who ruled until a freely elected president was installed in 1990. | | | It is this sort of vision, perhaps, that would lead a politician to continue to support the embargo on Cuba. |

| | Vatican City, created in 1929 to administer properties belonging to the Holy See in Rome, is recognized under international law as a sovereign state, but it does not send or receive diplomatic representatives. | | | Why is the spelling of proper names such as rulers, presidents, and prime ministers in The World Factbook different than their spelling in my country? | | | US Federal agencies are required by the Metric Conversion Act of 1975 (Public Law 94-168) and by Executive Order 12770 of July 1991 to use the International System of Units, commonly referred to as the metric system or SI. |
