Hola que tal a todos, en este articulo les traigo una base de datos de países en SQL lista para que la agreguen a sus proyectos.

Muchas veces tenemos que desarrollar proyectos donde hay que tener la lista de países y a veces tenemos que optar por hacer un CRUD o conseguir la lista de países.

En el caso de países es mejor tener una base de datos de los países y no un CRUD ya que la lista de países no cambia, incluso hay proyectos en los que podemos usar solo determinados países.

A continuación el listado de países en SQL.

use yourappname;
