What is WorldDB?

Click/tap here to expand/collapse the what is WorldDB section

WorldDB is a curated collection of images, videos, and audio sorted by countries and territories of the world.


Motivation

Click/tap here to expand/collapse the motivation section

I have a growing collection of images from every country, as part of a project I started in 2022. This media collection grew to the size of 30+ gigabytes in its first 2 years, and I didn't know how to better organize it, as I didn't know what to call the project. In 2024, I decided to collectively call it Seanpm2001 World DB.

The project originally started with gathering images of Ukraine during the Russian Invasion of Ukraine, but soon spread to include every country on Earth, current and former, and later, planets and galaxies.


Collection

Click/tap here to expand/collapse the collection section

My collection currently consists mostly of Wikimedia/Wikipedia images and video, but contains data from other sources as well. It isn't organized very well at the moment.

Administrative units

2️⃣️ Secondary administrative units of the world

When starting to create the repositories for WorldDB, I was hoping I would have the time to document the structure of the countries listed by using their ISO 3166-2 codes. So far, I have not gotten around to it yet.


Disputed territories and former countries

Click/tap here to expand/collapse the disputed territories section

My collection not only includes recognized, current countries, but also disputed territories and former countries. As of 2024, Monday, July 22nd, 3 have been published:

  • Abkhazia (breakaway state of Georgia)
  • Artsakh (breakaway state of Armenia)
  • Chechen Republic of Ichkeria (independent state that was taken over and occupied by the Russian Federation)

Can I see it?

Click/tap here to expand/collapse the motivation section

Not yet. I am still working on a way of hosting the content.

Languages

SQL is used for primary database repositories, and SVG is used for secondary database repositories. For example, Earth is a primary database, but its countries and their administrative units are secondary databases.

Repository listing is as of: 2024, Sunday, November 24th

I am currently working on creating repositories for all countries, going in alphabetical order. I currently expect to be done with this by 2024, November 30th, unless there is a delay.

Oceania definition

Click/tap here to expand/collapse the Def:Oceania section

🌏️ Oceania is a grouping of countries. It consists of the island/country of 🇦🇺️ Australia along with all of the islands in Polynesia, Micronesia, Melanesia, and Australasia, and any island country that is not associated with a country on the other 6 continents. Some people simply refer to this as Australia, but I feel Oceania is a better definition. Oceania is a definition that is more common outside of the English-speaking world, and due to how I initially discovered the term in geography, I chose Oceania.

SVG map of the world

Click/tap here to expand/collapse the SVG Map of the world section

Request date: 2024, Thursday, August 8th

A SVG locator map of the entire world, with administrative divisions. It may be built using locator maps of every administrative unit of every country. Will likely require a very powerful computer, as the file will likely come out in the size of multiple gigabytes.

Variants

  • Small - Only locator maps of countries are used
  • Medium - Locator maps of countries and their provinces/states/etc are used Current priority
  • Large - Locator maps of countries, their provinces/states/etc, and their cities are used
