<countries>To understand the usefulness of the relevance parameter, please read this:
- http://uxdesign.smashingmagazine.com/2011/11/10/redesigning-the-country-selector/
- http://baymard.com/labs/country-selector
- add the official name of the country in english and in its native language
- add the type of the country (country, sovereign state, public body, territory, etc.)
- add regions, provinces and cities
http://www.currency-iso.org/ for currency codes.
Relevance are inspired by https://github.com/JamieAppleseed/selectToAutocomplete.
Region and subregion are taken from https://github.com/hexorx/countries.
The rest comes from Wikipedia.
