Hi guys,
I don't usually do this but I would like some help in finding a high
quality list of "current" ( not Sparta ) and "real" ( not Mordor )
countries with the following props:
* ISO 3166-1-alpha-2 code
* English Name
* Flag
* Local Name ( optional )
* Language ( optional )
* Population ( optional )
* Facebook ID ( would be cool, but I imagine this is harder )
I am finding pieces of this dataset here and there ( DBPedia,
Freebase, CIAWFB, GeoNames ) with varying coverage and quality.
In case you are wondering: Yes, I *AM* trying to save myself some work ;)
Shameless crowd sourcing.
Thanks!

Aldo,
Goto: http://uriburner.com/c/DVIUF7 -- PivotViewer page with map overlay .
Of course, you can tweak the query, enable inference context, and
smush/mesh en route to union of facts culled from SUMO, DBpedia etc..
It's all there in Linked Data form you to exploit :-)
