This placemark displays the flags of all countries and territories listed in the CIA World Factbook and, when clicking on the flag, shows the background info from that site. It also contains links to the complete CIA page, as well as Wikipedia and Google search links.

All images are now included with the placemark file. If this doesn't work for you, just tell me and I will make a version with images linked to the CIA server available again, too.

If you find any misplaced countries (e.g. Vietnam ), CIA has an update submission page.
