This collection is hard to precisely define but, roughly, something is an instance of this collection just in case it is one of the following: 1) <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/Individual" class="cyc_term">Individual</a> acts that are intentionally performed by <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/IntelligentAgent" class="cyc_term">IntelligentAgent</a>s, or 2) <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/Individual" class="cyc_term">Individual</a>s that in some significant sense &quot;could only have been the result&quot; of the intentional activities of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/IntelligentAgent" class="cyc_term">IntelligentAgent</a>s (or groups thereof). Positive examples in the first category include <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/CesareanBirth" class="cyc_term">CesareanBirth</a>s, negative examples include eating.

Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/GeopoliticalEntity" class="cyc_term">GeopoliticalEntity</a> includes a governing body, but is more than just that governing body. <p/> Important subcollections include <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/Country" class="cyc_term">Country</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/IndependentCountry" class="cyc_term">IndependentCountry</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/State_Geopolitical" class="cyc_term">State_Geopolitical</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/City" class="cyc_term">City</a>, and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/Province" class="cyc_term">Province</a>.

In a &quot;physical&quot; geography microtheory (i.e. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/PhysicalGeographyMt" class="cyc_term">PhysicalGeographyMt</a> and its submicrotheories), geopolitical-entities are clearly distinguished from the regions they control. (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/TerritoryFn" class="cyc_term">TerritoryFn</a> <b>GEO-POL</b>) is used in these contexts to denote the land mass (a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/GeopoliticalRegion" class="cyc_term">GeopoliticalRegion</a>) of a given geopolitical-entity <b>GEO-POL</b>. In a &quot;dualist&quot; geography microtheory (i.e. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/DualistGeopoliticalMt" class="cyc_term">DualistGeopoliticalMt</a> and its submicrotheories), on the other hand, geopolitical-entities are viewed as being <i>both</i> agents <i>and</i> land masses (i.e. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/GeographicalRegion" class="cyc_term">GeographicalRegion</a>s). Thus, there is little need for <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/TerritoryFn" class="cyc_term">TerritoryFn</a> in the latter sort of context. (Despite their somewhat paradoxical flavor, dualist microtheories arguably allow Cyc to mimic commonsense reasoning about geopolitical entities and regions more closely than do the stricter physicalist microtheories.) There are also some &quot;generic&quot; geography microtheories (e.g. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/WorldGeographyMt" class="cyc_term">WorldGeographyMt</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/UnitedStatesGeographyMt" class="cyc_term">UnitedStatesGeographyMt</a>) which are neutral with respect to the physical and dualist views. <p/> Also see the shared-note for this constant.
