Dear Gilles and Lis-maps, and - last but not least - Kathleen Neary,
Having waited for at least one response before I offered a negative one, I
can say that the official Iceland website [http://www.iceland.org/] seems to
offer text, thematic statistics, and figures/graphs only as far as
information is concerned. According to the note about this site in the
'Nations of the world' section of 'The Hutchinson atlas of the world'
(Oxford : Helicon, 2001), ISBN 1-85986-375-2, this site includes "an
interactive map"; I didn't discover it - but my time is rather limited! In
case it helps others, this atlas is the first I have come across that gives
national flag, statistics, *and national/official website address(es)* for
each country.
