the-country-names

this is a small (40-120kb gziped) part of iso3166-2-db library. Contains only English names for the world from UN point of view

// get major export. 120kb gzipped
import countryNames from 'the-country-names';
// as long the-country-names is a simple json file
// countryNames will be a simple js object, with good autocomplete

// get minor export, 40kb gzipped
import countryNames from 'the-country-names/list';
// to get a reduced object, without references. Just names and codes

The exported types are

interface countryNames {    
   [iso3166_1: string]: Country;    
}

interface Country {      
    name: string, // name of a country
    iso: string,  // 2 letter ISO3166-1 code, same as the key
    iso3: string, // 3 letter ISO3166-1 code
    numeric: 20,  // numeric ISO3166-1 code
    fips: "AN",   // FIPS code
    reference: Reference,
    regions: Array<Region>
}

interface Region {
    name: string,
    iso: string,    // iso3166-2 code
    fips: string,   // fips code
    admin: string,  // national code
