Atlas is a simple library containing data about countries and their territories. The term territory here refers to any place that holds an equivalence to a state in their respective country, each territory can have additional information of itself, including the list of cities within it.
The data provided by this library has been scraped from different sites and is provided with no guarantees of it being accurate or complete.
Country territories will be added as they are required (gathering all data takes quite some time), but any contributions are welcome!

The data for the US includes data on 50 States, 1 Federal District and 5 special areas.
For simplicity purposes, cities, towns and villages that are officially incorporated into a state regardless of its population have have been included as cities.
CDPs have been included in Hawaii's data and Townships were not included in Michigan's data.
