Countries data
This repository contains lists of world countries in JSON, CSV and XML. Each line contains the country:
- name
- top-level domain (tld)
- code ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 (cca2)
- code ISO 3166-1 numeric (ccn3)
- code ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 (cca3)
- currency code(s) (comma separated if several)
- calling code(s) (comma separated if several)
- alternative spellings (comma separated if several)
- relevance
- region
- subregion (comma separated if several)
I use http://www.shancarter.com/data_converter/index.html to generate the JSON and XML; the CSV was done by hand.
I will add the following data:
- the country capital city
- the country official language(s)
Sources
- Wikipedia for country name, TLD, ISO codes and alternative spellings
- http://www.currency-iso.org/ for currency codes
- Alternative spellings and relevance are inspired by https://github.com/JamieAppleseed/selectToAutocomplete
- Region and subregion are taken from https://github.com/hexorx/countries.
