The plan is for everyone to give a 5 - 10 minute presentation on a country of their choice on Monday 19th May.
Please dig out information that you will not find in tourist brochures.
Here are some sources:
CIA World Factbook: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/Foreign and Commonwealth Office Travel Advice: https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice
Culture Crossing: http://www.culturecrossing.net/
Here you will find lots of statistics.
Remember, a statistic is USELESS unless we have something to compare it to. So use Sweden as a benchmark when telling us things like how many people can read and write, how many people die in car accidents, etc.
Happy Planet Index: http://www.happyplanetindex.org/data/
Transparency International - Corruption (by country): http://www.transparency.org/country
World Bank Data: http://data.worldbank.org/country
index Mundi - a compilation of data from different sources: http://www.indexmundi.com/
