The Glossary index consists of a series of items grouped / sorted according
to the subject headings of: Organizations, People, Places, and Events.
Each glossary item is marked as an <entryFree> element, nested within
the appropriate subject heading marked as a <div> element.
The overall structure of the glossary index looks like this:
<body>
<div type"Organizations">
<entryFree>
<!-- ... -->
</entryFree>
</div>
<div type"People">
<entryFree>
<!-- ... -->

</div> <div type"Places">

<!-- ... -->
</entryFree>
</div> <div type"Events">

</entryFree>
</div> </body>
The following is a series of templates for each type of glossary entry (Organizations,
People, Places, and Events).
NOTE: In the following template, the brackets ("[...]") denote places
where the encoder must fill in the relevant content.

<def>The capital and largest city of Germany, in the northeast part of the country. Founded in the 13th century, it was the capital of the kingdom of Prussia from 1701 and the capital of the German Empire (1871-1918), the Weimar Republic (1919-1932), and the Third Reich (1933-1945). The city was divided between 1945 and 1990 into East Berlin and West Berlin, which division grew out of the zones of occupation established at the end of World War II. The Berlin Wall, a wire and concrete barrier, was erected by the East German government in August 1961 and dismantled in November 1989. Population: 3,475,392.</def>

Unique identifiers are item specific names for each glossary entry. Each glossary
entry must have a unique id.
Example: <entryFree id="EV.001">
Basic formula to create an id:
2-character code+3 digit number corresponding to the number of the entry. The
fields should be separated by a dot.
Examples:
OR.001 (a glossary entry of an Organization) PE.001 (a glossary entry of a Person) PL.001 (a glossary entry of a Place) EV.001 (a glossary entry of an Event)
The unique id will most likely be machine generated.
