E: Missing links 4 – geography

It has been a while without URL supplements. Thus, new missing links are about.

This fourth issue have resources in regards to geography, maps and additional global knowledge:

* International calling codes and internet codes are always handy.
* CIA world factbook. A very precise, updated and free online encyclopedia on the countries of the world. Countries of the world ain’t bad either.
* On Theodora’s page you can also find an extensive selection of various flags and maps from the entire world, be it in regards to climate, weather, population, language and so on.
* The countries and their capitals can be found here (”only” 194 according to this definition)
* online ruler. With this tool I could measure that there is 15992 kilometers between Oslo and Melbourne.
