If any fields are left undefined they will not appear. The recommended image size is a width of 250px so that it will completely fill the infobox without increasing its size.

Add wiki links in "home=" to articles on listed homeland by putting the name of the place inside double brackets, [[like this]].

Do NOT add wiki links to alignments.
