 <h2>Background</h2>
 <p>
-In recent years, governments worldwide have mandated publication of open government content to the public Web for the purpose of facilitating open societies and to support governmental accountability and transparency initiatives. However, publication of unstructured data in HTML alone is insufficient.  In order to realize the goals of open government initiatives, the re-use of government data requires that members of the public can find, visualize and programmatically absorb the data.  Publishing government content as Linked Data is the means to achieve these worthy objectives.
