Administrative Subdivisions of Countries : A Comprehensive World Reference, 1900 through 1998

"Statistical and historical information about countries' subdivisions"--Public Library Quarterly; "immense...simplifies the comparison of decades worth of data"--Abstracts of Public Administration, Development and Environment. This immense, large-format reference work simplifies the comparison of decades' worth of data from such countries. For each country there is at least one table, and usually several. Histories of subdivision changes and lists of alternate names for subdivisions in each country add to the work's research value. All relevant national and international standards such as ISO and FIPS codes are listed, as well as time zones, populations, areas and capitals for each subdivision
