Country Profile

The Country Profile page is unique to the  Main Menu Map and can only be accessed from the main menu: click on the desired country then click Country Profile from the drop down. This option shows a brief portrait of various important variables for the selected country. It displays a map of the country at the top of the form followed by a list of various current values and forecasts, organized into the following categories: Population, Health, Education, Social/Human, Economy, Energy, Environment, International Politics, and Domestic Government.

The Population variables will be opened by default. To see other variables scroll and click Choose next to the desired set of variables or click the name of the desired set from the list at the top right of the screen. To open a graph or table of a particular variable forecast click on the graph or table icon next to the variable name.
