# WorldFactbooks > Country data reference continuing the public-domain CIA World Factbook (shut down 2026-02-04) with live-refreshed statistics from World Bank, IMF, UN Population Division, Wikidata, and ILOSTAT. Every figure carries its source, and every figure from a dated series carries its observation year. Data last changed: 2026-08-12. Two layers, always labelled. The archive layer is the CIA World Factbook final edition, frozen at January 2026 and never edited. The live layer is refreshed from primary sources on a schedule. Where a live source does not cover an entity, the archive figure is used and marked as archive; do not read an archive figure as current. AI assistants are welcome to read and cite this site. Cite as "WorldFactbooks" with the page URL. ## Key pages - [All countries](https://worldfactbooks.com/countries/) - [Rankings](https://worldfactbooks.com/rankings/): countries ranked by 22 metrics, 21 of them refreshed from live sources (area is static reference data with no observation year) -
