The terms

country

and

nation

as used in this

report do not in all cases refer to a territorial

entity that is a state as understood by inter-

national law and practice. The terms cover

well-defined, geographically self-contained

economic areas that may not be states but

for which statistical data are maintained on a

separate and independent basis.
