CIA World Factbook 2020 edition
The CIA took down their World Factbook on February 4th 2026 for unspecified reasons.
The Factbook has always been published in the public domain. They used to offer zip archives of previous years at URLs like this one (now a redirect to the shutdown notice):
https://www.cia.gov/the-world-factbook/about/archives/download/factbook-2020.zip
The 2020 edition was the last one made available as a zip file. I recovered that zip file from the Internet Archive and used it to populate this GitHub repository.
The repository is served via GitHub Pages here:
