Hi, good to see people are using the WorldFact dataset. I also thought about adding the ISO3166-2 Subdivision codes, but ran out of time for the last release.

I dont think it's worth the effort to create some sophisticated extractor, so yes. > We'll do it for at least for 49 countries (but if possible, for all) Please do it for all (I can help there as well), since my initial impulse for this dataset was to provide a complete collection of facts about countries and not to be content with gaps in the records as you will find plenty. Of help might be this dataset as well: http://data.okfn.org/data/core/language-codes If anyone has additional ideas what to put in this dataset, please let us know.
