Thanks for this!

There is extra text in the Laos country name: https://github.com/factbook/factbook.json/blob/4c279ceb09f7a87188d38027dbf2fb72531dd92f/east-n-southeast-asia/la.json#L490

Thanks for reporting. The idea / philosophy is to use the data as provided by the CIA including curiosities such as the use of   - yes, ideally entries should all be plain text. The best way to fix this is to report upstream at the CIA HQ here -> https://cia.gov ;-).

Yes, sorry, i am still undecided on how to deal with html "artefacts" inside the entries ...   might be a good candidate to auto-convert to space and if trailing getting removed. Let's see if this is a one-time issue or keeps poping up / staying on in the next weeks.
