ANSWER:
This "book" will keep your information together. It will also inform players of your stats, technology levels, military size, etc. People need to know if they invade you how hard it will be.

QUESTION: Why should I make one?
ANSWER:
If you don't make one, things become inconsistant. Things get messy and I end up hitting someone with the Banstick...
In all seriousness though, you should make one to keep things straight.

Here are the top seven things you should have in a factbook. I'm not so big on Communications myself... however I've always been told its good to have.
1. Geography- a rough idea of terrain.
2. Economy- Technology levels and such... I'll explain later.
3. History- What is your county's past?
4. Military- Obvious...
5. Government Structure and Political Structure... Dictatorship or democracy or neither?
6. People and Population- Culture, population, GDP... etc.
7. Communications- Alliances and such.
