Waaaht? And, why? Budgets? This is/was a wonderful resource. I'll be sad to see the back of it.

Yes, budgets. They need to cancel this maybe $100K website to fund the $500 Trillion defense budget increase.

It will be replaced by the new CIA factbook which will tell us it is the destiny for the white race to rule the world.

The why is a good question. I don't think it is the budget; to me it seems more as if Wikipedia kind of phased it out.

Wikipedia used it. And it had much information not in Wikipedia. And it was concise. And its structure was consistent.
