| | The CIA World Factbook |
| | The CIA is anything but a benign agency and more than a passive intelligence-gathering arm of the United States government. | | | This "factbook," an archive of data collected by the United States government, serves the empire by working to control discourse, specifically the way other nations are represented and discussed. | | | Despite a lack of spacial limitations imposed on the text, the Factbook is far from a depository of "raw data." Instead, Shuler suggests that its archival function is one among many acts of aggression on the part of an aspiring Empire. |
