I welcome any suggestions for the Statoids Website. I would especially like to see any reports of recent or future changes to the administrative subdivisions of any country that haven't yet been mentioned on this site. To suggest improvements or report dead links, e-mail me at I read English, French, Portuguese, Spanish, German, and Italian (in decreasing order of facility), and can reply in any of those languages if desired.

Note! I really appreciate your e-mails, but I have to apologize. I simply don't have enough time to answer them all. Depending on the subject matter, it takes me anywhere from 15 minutes to 15 hours to investigate and answer a single e-mail. Right now (May 2012), I have around 600 e-mails concerning the Statoids site in my inbox waiting to be answered. I promise that I have read them all. I usually answer questions promptly. But if you are contributing data or suggesting corrections to the website, I can only process your message when I get some spare time. If anyone wants to subsidize me with a $100,000 (USD) grant, I will hire an assistant for a year, and then maybe I can catch up.

Update! Statoids.com is under new management (more information about that here). You may contact Shirley Law, the new manager, at I am also continuing to monitor my father's email address (listed above). Unfortunately, I only communicate well in English.

If you would like to set up an image link to this site, copy and paste the following html into your page:

<a href="http://www.statoids.com/statoids.html"><img src="http://www.statoids.com/gsmlogo.jpg" border=0></a>

It should look and work like this (click on the image to go to the Statoids home page):

To link to a specific page (for example, the States of the United States page, uus.html), replace "statoids.html" with "uus.html" in the first tag.

Privacy policy: Since this site is not interactive, there's not much need for a privacy policy. We don't leave any cookies. I think my internet service provider logs all page views by IP address, so I could theoretically track your visits by IP address, but I won't. If you buy data from me, I will keep the transaction confidential to the best of my ability.
