The Country catalog of the Globalization guide presents tables on the principal countries of the world. For each of these we have provided data, which is kept up to date through constant research in the major and most detailed sources of local and international information, and through knowledgeable enquiries conducted by our globalization consultants. 

The country tables are presented in a way which allows easy navigation, in the following pages:
