Don't mind asking, but why would it be better than just reading the wikipedia or CIA world "fact book" or anything similar? And your country presentation pages start with history, that is irrelevant to most and doesn't have much to do with the current state of the countries. Le me give you an example: the page about Romania (http://countryaday.org/#/country/romania) starts with lots of historical information that is irrelevant to any potential travelers and to the current economical and political state of the country. A summary for someone wanting to learn more should rather start with something like this: "R. is a democratic East European country part of the EU located .... . The country is safe to travel in and if you are an EU citizen you don't need a travel visa. It is a latin country like Italy, France and Spain and unlike all its neighboring countries, and this is a basic thing that every explorer should understand before learning more about its culture and history." My advice is to make it into a "travelers' wiki" curated by regional experts. But even if you don't do it this way, don't start a presentation about a country with its history - its both extremely boring and prone to create misconceptions (because it's basically impossible for a non-historian to figure out what parts of a country's history are relevant, by relevant meaning "connected to the current state of affairs and present-day culture of the country", and what is just meaningless historical trivia that not even the educated citizens of the country itself know...). |
