The country structure represents a gazetteer, or the political or administrative divisions within a country. In IMSMANG, the country structure allows a mine action programme to link mine action information to areas and report statistics such as number of hazards per province or district. So the country structure should be set up before beginning data entry.
 
Ideally, a mine action programme uses an official, countrywide country structure that ensures mine action information is compatible with other national datasets. Implementing an existing gazetteer requires two steps:
 
* defining the levels of the country structure
* defining the areas of the country structure
