certain key sectors (if people are leaving).
Oil - consumption: This entry is the total oil consumed in barrels per

People - note: This entry includes miscellaneous demographic

Personal Names - Capitalization: The Factbook capitalizes the surname
or family name of individuals for the convenience of our users who are

examples: MAO Zedong, Fidel CASTRO Ruz, George W. BUSH, and TUNKU

Bush, or Sultan Tunku Salahuddin. The same system of capitalization is
extended to the names of leaders with surnames that are not commonly
used such as Queen ELIZABETH II. For Vi
