Gazzetter

Hey,

you might all be using this already.

http://world-gazetteer.com/
is a site which has the major towns and cities in the world. You can
look them up through specific countries or regions ie Asia, America,
Europe. This may be useful  as we are doing GPI now.

Geographical Regions

Well done for finding the list. I couldn't find it, but have the link to the TDWG document that it is derived from:

http://www.nhm.ac.uk/hosted_sites/tdwg/geo2.htm

pages 51-65 are relevant.
