How can I query a country's property like language from DBpedia?

Question

How can I query a country profile with DBPedia like http://dbpedia.org/page/France and get a property like language?

Answer 1

Unless they provide an API of some kind your only choice would be to "screen scrape" the page - in other words load the page using curl (or some other method) and then search for "dbpedia-owl:language" and get the string that follows (dbpedia:French_language) and parse it to make it nicer looking.
