List of World Countries
The entries of this list are mostly self governing entities. Also included are some very small territories or protectorates which may not have any direct responsibility for citizenship.
The list contains the name of the country as typically used in English and the local name of the country (as written in English characters). Unfortunately it does not contain local name of the country in the local script, or the name of the country in other languages (e.g. German or French or Japanese). If you can help with either of these, please let us know!
Some of the country specific internet domains are not actively used. Even for countries that use their national domain, additional high quality material can often also be found in standard domains like .org and .com
