Can you give me some information on Guinea, please? 
 I sure can. Formerly known as French Guinea, the modern country is sometimes referred to as Guinea-Conakry in order to distinguish it form other countries with "Guinea" in the name such as Equatorial Guinea. 
 Thanks! Can you share about the government and politics there? 
 Guinea's foreign relations, including those with its West African neighbors, have improved steadily since 1985. 
 That is always a good thing. What else can you offer? 
 Guinea is a member of many international organizations including the African Union, African Development Bank, World Bank, IMF, and the United Nations. 
 Is the government similar to the United States? 
 I am not sure as it is like West African empires and Kingdoms. 
 Do you know anything about the economy? 
 Dian, Dian, a Guinean/Ukranian joint bausite venture, has projected production rate of 1000000 t per year, but is not expected to begin operation for several years. 
 What is a Bausite venture? 
 It is a joint venture. Like AREDOR, a joind diamond mining venture between the Guinean government (50%) and an Australian-Swiss-British consortium which began in 1984 and mined high quality gems. 
 OK, thank you for helping me. 
 You are welcome.
