If you want to see the U.S. government’s description of the U.S. go to http://www.usa.gov/ . Also, there are lots of govt. sites ALL OVER the internet with a .gov suffix.
For example, if you want to know anything about demographics go to http://www.census.gov/
The State Department is about the govt’s public description of “International Information”, as they are very happy to state.

Thanks for the links and info. I’ve got a pretty good handle on what information is and isn’t available.
