Geopolitical Ontology

Geopolitical Ontology has been populated using FAO, UN and internationally recognized data sources. It ensures that FAO and associated partners can rely on a master reference for geopolitical information, as it manages names in multiple languages (English, French, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Russian and Italian); maps standard coding systems (UN, ISO, FAOSTAT,  AGROVOC, etc); provides relations among territories (land borders, group membership, etc); and tracks historical changes.
