Did you mean there are 0 states and cities inside those countries or only some?

[dr5hn]

Closing issue until answered.

@dr5hn , I can answer it for Turkey.

Turkey doesn't have any states, we only have cities.

@dr5hn Monaco cities list is empty when mostly it should contain a few.

Yes, there are entries without states / cities.

const fs = require('fs/promises');
const axios = require('axios');

function main () {
  const { data } = await axios.get(
    "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dr5hn/countries-states-cities-database/master/countries%2Bstates%2Bcities.json"
  );

  data.forEach(async (country) => {
    const filename = path.join(__dirname, "./empties/", `${country.iso3}.json`);

    if (!country.states.length) {
      await fs.writeFile(filename, JSON.stringify(country, null, 2));
    } else {
      for (const state of country.states) {
        if (!state.cities.length) {
          await fs.writeFile(filename, JSON.stringify(country, null, 2));
          break;
        }
      }
    }
  });
}

main();

Not sure why that is. There are 1.5k+ entries and the generated JSON is too long so here's a code you can run to check them out.
