[Rockhounds] seeking info on official political locality data

[Lanny R]

Hi Don,

It might be in the CIA World Fact Book. It's been a while since I  
looked at it, so made a quick search to get the url:
https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/

I didn't look for what you wanted though, so am not guaranteeing it is  
there.

Regards,

Lanny
