DatasetCSV.GZOpenWorld BankCountriesIncome GroupsReferenceDevelopmentFree

217 economies classified by the World Bank with ISO3 and ISO2 codes, geographic region, administrative region, income group (low, lower-middle, upper-middle, high), IDA/IBRD lending category, capital city and its coordinates, with the World Bank's short codes alongside each label, excluding the 78 regional and income aggregates, from the World Bank country API as of 2026-09-06.

Use Cases

  • Capital-city coordinates for maps

Methodology
