    Any "open source" geograhy database?

    Hi,

    Does one really need to buy the ip2location or similiar database, if you simply just want a list of countries, regions, and cities for your site? (not of this ip to location, latitude/longitude stuff)?

    Aint there a place this data is available for download?

    I made 5 tables. Continents>SubContinents>Countries>Regions>Cities
    Got them all populated, but seems my source (from e...uhum..Mule) was wrong cuz just in the two countries I know (China and South Africa) I found mistakes in the cities allready.
