All your feeds are empty, bro. Could you get that fixed? :-)

Nice, but the site seems to return empty data sets? No countries :(

Hi, First of all, absolutely fantastic that you’ve created an open version of this, very much appreciated. However, it doesn’t seem to work anymore, all of the lists are empty. Will this be fixed ? And, does it have the country name also in native language (e.g. “Germany” = “Deutschland”) ? Cheers, Rens

just wonder, I’m looking for a list with country calling codes, for input choice when adding phone numbers in an app. Is there something similar, or would this list work here? Guess I’d need another table with the prefixes (+45, +34 etc) right? Cheers

Great idea! However, I find the (e.g. JSON) data structure you chose somehow sub-optimal. Checking values for validity assumes that one has to iterate over the whole array and checking each object’s key for existence of a value. Why not using a flat object?

It looks like this has been broken for a number of months – all the feeds are empty.

Any chance of fixing it?

This is amazing. I would like to see it go a step farther and include 3166-2 so that state/province can be populated as well.

I’ve got another vote for 3 letter country codes (commonly used on machine readable passports and using 3 characters allows the implementation to be more flexible for ‘made-up countries’ and future expansion).

PHP arrays (and different translations of the country names) would be brilliant!
