Adapted from CountryField - Initial thanks to marinho

Uses the UN country list listed in the source - this provides the 3 character ISO country code. Ordered by display value and not country code.

Just place anywhere you like and import CountryField to use.

country = CountryField(verbose_name="Country", help_text="The registrant's country of residence.")
