    "title": "Demografía de Andorra", 
    "text": "El mayor núcleo de población del Principado es la capital, Andorra la Vieja, con 24.574 habitantes (2008), lo que representa el 29,6% de la población andorrana. Las siguientes parroquias por población son Las Escaldas-Engordany (16.474 hab.) y Encamp (14.030hab.)."
}

Following MIRACL, docid has the pattern X#Y, where Y indicates the sequentially numbered passage inside the Wikipedia article, and all passages with the same X are from the same article. The article name from which the paragraph is taken is in the title field.
