We have a CSV file that has all the countries in the world, their corresponding ISO codes, and their short and formal names in English, French, Spanish, Russian, Chinese, Arabic, and Italian. This was compiled from various government and international references:

You can use a for loop:

for ($i = 0; $i < $numCountries; $i++) {
  echo $geonames->geonames[$i]->countryName;
}
