Citations

If you have more than one citation without an author that uses your country's name, you'll need to add something more to your in-text citations to designate which source you're using. Use something unique to the publication to identify them, for example publisher. You'll put that in [ ] inside the parentheses in your in-text citation.

Example: ("Oman" [World Factbook])
