The CIA World Factbook is a reference website created by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). It features world maps and regional maps in both political and physical format to view for free. It also has detailed information and statistics on every country from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe. It includes information and statistics from the country's history to transactional issues (and of course its geography!)
It includes flag descriptions of every flag, and has downloadable photos of every country with lengthy, intricate captions. There is also a printed book version available updated every year and a iOS app.
