@rokrokos is Already being raised as an issue. I think the issue relates to fixing up these first.

@rokrokos Because it requires a restructuring of the whole country, state and city. Might take another 6 months to fix it.

Just FYI, this database took me 4 years to build it.

Many companies use this DB in production.

dr5hn commented 2 years ago

@rokrokos Not sure, how they use. But I've got many active company users using my APIs. https://countrystatecity.in/

I don't have information about the company's locations. It might be possible that none of the companies are from UK.

@rokrokos Apologies, for the delayed response.

Yes, I know it's of no use for some people.

I will be happier if you can contribute towards making "Slovenia" more accurate.

I have a plan to add zip codes / postal codes in near future. I am just finding for the correct source of data.

About this issue, "Dravlje District" -> "Dravlje" Yes, I am trying to fix it all one by one.

You have a great DB, so close... it's really sad that because 1/4 of wrong data or incorrectly sorted it's almost useless in production (for example worldwide social networks, webshops).

Italy, Croatia, Slovenia, ... all have a lot of problems.

What if you divide the work among us - for example - I am from Slovenia, and I can make a complete DB of Slovenian states/cities in a week or so.

By the way, It would be great if you could add zip codes / postal codes for states/cities. States / Cities should be generic and not like "Ljubljana City Municipality" --> "Ljubljana" or "Dravlje District" -> "Dravlje"
