Posted below is the Central Intelligence Agency's publication "The World Factbook" in compressed, .Zip file format, for the convenience of visitors who wish to download a personal copy.
Format: The files for both publications are in standard HTML format. They have been compressed in .Zip format for ease of distribution.

2. Download the file listed below to the location of your choice.
3. Unzip the file or files you downloaded into the folder or directory you created for storing the publication.
Do not unzip any file into a folder or directory other than the one you created. The process of unzipping the files will create subfolders or subdirectories required for the publication to be usable on your computer. If you unzip files into these subfolders or subdirectories, parts or all of the publication may not work.
4. The files named index.htm and index.html open the publication's home page. Navigate to the index file in the folder or directory you created using a file manager, such as Windows Explorer, then double-click it to open and begin using the publication.
The World Factbook requires about 40 megabytes of disk space for the .Zip files and about 80 megabytes of disk space for the publication once it's unzipped.
