`factbook_compare`

Pack: cia-factbook · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/factbook_compare for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Compare CIA World Factbook fields side by side across up to 10 countries — population, median age, life expectancy, real GDP per capita, GDP growth, inflation, unemployment, public debt, military expenditures, area, internet users, etc. Use for “compare population and GDP per capita of Kenya, Nigeria and Ghana” or “life expectancy in Japan vs Germany”. Field names match the Factbook headings (case-insensitive, partial match allowed; “Economy > Exports” pins a section). factbook_fields lists the exact names.

Parameters

`items`	string	no
`fields`	array	yes	Factbook field names, e.g. [“Population”, “Real GDP per capita”, “Life expectancy at birth”]. Max 10.
