is there any free api which i can use to load list of countries states cities etc dynamically may be from Google maps

Question

Hi I want to make a website where in the drop down for countries states cities can be filled by ajax call. But I don't want to keep all these values on my local database. Please suggest possible data sources. If possible a jsfiddle will help

This question appears to be off-topic because it is about data source recommendation. — Artjom B., Sep 27 '14 at 14:57
