MySQL Countries Of The World Table in SQL

SQL

Sometimes we need a list of all countries, and whilst searching Wikipedia and copy and pasting is fine, it can take a long time and is tedious, so here is an SQL Country List to copy and paste. 

CREATE TABLE `settingsCountries` (`CountryID` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,`CountryCode` varchar(2) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',`CountryName` varchar(100) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',PRIMARY KEY (`CountryID`)) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=1 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

....and then insert all the items
