What kinds of, and how much, content do you want in a T2k regional sourcebook?

[Raellus]

For a small country or a US state, what kind of information would you, as a potential user, want to find in a T2k sourcebook? As a creator, it can be tricky to determine how much information to include- one wants to be helpful whilst not losing the reader's interest, or forcing the reader to wade through excessive fluff to find important information. TLDR (Too Long, Didn't Read) is a growing problem these days (how many of you are tempted to jump ahead at this moment ). As online content gets distilled into smaller and smaller, attention-grabbing, dopamine-producing chunks, consumers are conditioned to expect more of the same, and attention spans, it seems are shrinking. On the other hand, one doesn't want to drift too far in the opposite direction by being overly concise. If a sourcebook doesn't include enough relevant information (details, colour, etc.), it's not going to be very useable, and users are likely going to feel short-changed.

For creators, looking at existing T2k sourcebooks can be helpful, but times have changed, as have TTRPGs to a degree.

• How much non-directly-related T2k history for that place do you want?
  
• How much information about geography, economic activities, and/or culture do you want?
  
• How specific do you want descriptions of places of interest and/or factions to be?
  
• Is there anything else that you want, or don't want, a regional sourcebook to include?
  
• As a user, what is more or less helpful, content-wise?

Any and all thoughts on these, or other related questions, would be much appreciated.
