Geography Project: Country Profile

A COUNTRY PROFILE is a one-page snapshot of a place. Geographers, journalists, and travel writers all build profiles when they need to learn a country fast. A good profile answers eight quick questions — Where is it? What is the capital? What languages are spoken? How many people live there? What is the climate like? — and turns a name on a map into a real place with real people.
