I'm using xquery embedded in java against an xml file in an eXist db. I'm able to do queries and replaces (updates)

Is it possible to insert nodes and elements.

For example, lets say I've an xml file with levels
CONTINENT
...COUNTRY
......CITY

I would want to append a new country to the Europe node and then add a city to that new country.

Is this possible using the technologies mentioned above. If so, a sample of the xquery I would need to achieve this would be very appreciated

Thanks
