Ask HN: An idea on how to create curated news site?

I'm curating news on a specific topic for my own use and thought to share it with the world. The topic is divided by countries. I'm looking for a simple way to show the news links in a curated way, so it will be easy for me to track and update and for the visitors to find what they want. I've thought about a Github repo like the Awesome X for languages, but it seems more complicated given the division by countries. Any ideas/examples? Thx!
