[edit] Template instructions

This template adds the entire page format for a list of basic topics for a country.

Don't transclude this template.  Instead, use substitution, like this:

{{subst:BLT country|country name (capitalized)}}

Then fill in the sections, adjusting the headings to fit the subject.

(BLT stands for "bacon, lettuce, tomato", uh, er, I mean "basic list template".)
