I'm sure it is a homework assignment. I agree with Wes to some extent that you are supposed to be doing research and reading on your own to answer those questions, however, there is plenty of stuff on the internet to answer those questions. In fact, I think the internet is more up-to-date and better suited to questions on tourism than library books. However, do you your own homework. It is amazing you can find out how to post questions on a travel book's forum but can't figure out how to find out tourism and country information. Ever heard of Ask Jeeves, etc? My nephew uses sites like that. Perhaps your teacher is doing a poor job and not teaching you that the point of research papers is to teach you skills in how to find out information, how to critically read and assess what you find, how to evaluate importance and reliability of what you read, how to summarize information, etc., in addition to organization and writing skills, of course. I don't know what your grade level is, but you should learn that you cannot write research papers without proper footnotes attributing the information, which cannot be "moonbeam at fodors.com"
