I prefer Koyanisqaatsi's approach to naming.
"Afghanistan history" looks odd
to me because it should be "Afghan history"; when we get to the F's,
I'll want
"French geography," not "France geography." This doesn't apply for
every
possibility: "United States government" is correct, for example.
what I'd like in the new system is intuitive but grammatically correct naming so it
fits in an article without being piped.
The other, broader question to consider is whether we
want a stack of small
pages for history, geography, etc. of each country: "history" probably,
that's a good point: should the articles be collapsed into one, with the possible
exception of a long "breakout" article on history? Most countries can sustain a
longer article on history, but the transportation and communications ones are typically
skimpy.
and yet another question is what to do about the articles' obsolescence: automated
importation from the CIA site would be ideal. Adding them all was a several-month long
process. sorry to have opened such a can of worms. <g>
