From the country home page, one can access home pages for political subdivisions of that country. For example, from the United States home page, one can go directly to the various state pages.


 * Search by Keywords


 * This search methods operates similarly to the search engine for Wikipedia. The search engine looks for keywords found in the titles and text of the articles on the ResearchWiki. For example, one can type in key words such as:
 * England
 * Iowa cemeteries
 * African American Research


 * Search by Topic


 * This allows you to search articles that have been categorized by topic. This is similar to using a table of contents, divided into categories and subcategories.
