Countries Dictionary provides:

• A dictionary contains all members and observer states of the United Nations and information about them:
  • Formal name
  • Continent(s) of the country's mainland
  • Area in square kilometre
  • Population
  • Official language(s)
  • Nominal GDP in dollar
  • Human Development Index
• Another dictionary contains all federal subjects of the Russian Federation (including occupied zones in Ukraine) and information about them:
  • Federal district
  • Economic region
  • Capital or administrative centre
  • Area
  • Population
• Another one contains all provinces and municipalities of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam and information about them:
  • Region
  • Administrative centre

  • Population
• Some variables you might find helpful

After importing them:

from countries_dictionary import countries
from countries_dictionary.russia import russia
from countries_dictionary.vietnam import vietnam
import countries_dictionary.quick_variables as qv

you can do many things with the dictionary, such as calculate GDP per capita of a country:

countries["Switzerland"]["nominal GDP"] / countries["Switzerland"]["population"]

population density:

countries["Russia"]["population"] / countries["Russia"]["area"]

percentage of a Vietnamese province's area compared to Vietnam's total area:

vietnam["Ho Chi Minh City"]["area"] / countries["Vietnam"]["area"] * 100

or just see the dictionary when France is censored (This is only a joke, I don't support hate against France and French)

I created this module as a source of countries' information that is easy to access and use by coders.
