Where can I get a database of all the world's countries and cities? any resources would be helpful.

Thanks,

Mike
 
Thank you all.

I purchased it from MeridianWorldData.com. They have the best database.
 
I know the CIA used to publish data for all countries of the world. This info was publicily available. Take a look at Don't know if they have any db's you can down load tho. Might be worth looking at.
 
Thanks paulrw1 for the info. I checked that site out before I purchsed MeridianWorldData.com software. cia.gov database is very confusing and plus it doesn't have time zones information. I am very happy with MeridianWorldData.com product since they have documented every field and it's very easy to use; this database even have more rows than cia.gov database. (much completer)
 
Well... It IS a gov db after all.. I guess we can't have an efficient source of info.. LOL

If the location of the Chinese embassy in Belgrade has been updated, then you have the latest stuff. [wink]
