wish this had the following

[russellharrower]

1) country Currency code 2) Country States 3) Country states capital cities

[mledoze]

Ok for currency code and capital cities, I will add that.

I don't know if 'country states' is applicable to all countries.

[ghost]

Maybe add some more information

5) The country capital 6) The country continent 7) The country phone code

[mledoze]

I'm OK for all three. I may also add official or native language

To add more information, please pick from this list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_by_country

For country continent: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sovereign_states_and_dependent_territories_by_continent_%28data_file%29

Any help is welcome!

Nice, what you think about having this with the most information we could get ?

Like:

• regions ( like: Asia, Europe, South America, USA, etc... )
• countries ( the countries, using the region id, and the information you have now and more )
• cities ( each city using the country cca2 for sepparation ? )

I find very difficult to find all these things in one place and i don't mind helping you with this if you want !

I'm currently working on a bundle for Laravel ( PHP Framework ) so i can use it later in my projects, and all these information may come in handy for some other people aswell

I removed my previous comment !

What i have so far:

• List of capitals of some countries ( Need to try to get the rest of them )
• List of countries with the capital, and organized the output ( name; tld; cca2; cca3; ccn3; currency; capital )

What i want to add:

• Country continent
• Country Call Code ( Phone Code )

And then Country Cities, that will have the city call code aswell, but this is going to be a lot of work !!

I you want my data files i can give them to you, it's a simple PHP script.

This is good!

Can you please send a pull request that includes your work? You can add new temporary files, I can merge the data.

I'm interested in your PHP script. I did the initial work by hand because I thought that it would take more time to create a program to parse the data correctly (from various sources) than to do it manually. I know it takes a long time.

Thanks

There! Commits 9d919326c2f5bcacb273e6babf88be04f6777d32 and 923c8931eef60e43fb61268bf307b33dc892ad18.

I added the countries calling codes, added the 'Cocos (Keeling) Islands' country and updated a few info. I also added back the alternative spellings and relevance, it got lost somehow.

I'm closing this issue. I'm currently adding capital cities and native languages.
