Scope This investigation is concerned with finding government information on the web that is of value to society: individuals, various professions, and sundry organizations - including businesses. The breadth of the study is all nations (including the United Nations) and its depth is all levels of government within each nation. Sources There are two kinds of sources for governmental information: Sites containing information about government run by non government entities.
