The most important thing about infoboxes is to know that they are tables. In old infoboxes like on your wiki, each line of the infobox will only appear if the parameter of the line is defined. You will need to understand the  parserfunction and how parameters work. See wikipedia:Wikipedia:Anatomy of a template

" is rendered. ! Country                <- the left cell of the line. "!" in a table means the cell is a header
 * -                       <- start of a new line in the table
 * <- the right cell, with the content of whatever you want to fill in. "|" is used instead of "|" because "|" would be part of "if".
 * }}                     <- closing of "if"
