How to add whole countries select list in grav forms.

This is quite simple really, but does require a 'tiny' bit of code. You can put this code in your current 'theme' or in a custom plugin if you wish.

I'll use the Antimatter theme as an example here: In your themes' php file add this method:

<?php
namespace Grav\Theme;

use Grav\Common\Theme;

class Antimatter extends Theme
{
    public static function countryCodes()
    {
        return array (
            'AF' => 'Afghanistan',
            'AX' => 'Åland Islands',
            'AL' => 'Albania',
            'DZ' => 'Algeria',
            'AS' => 'American Samoa',
            'AD' => 'Andorra',
            'AO' => 'Angola',
            'AI' => 'Anguilla',
            'AQ' => 'Antarctica',
            'AG' => 'Antigua & Barbuda',
            'AR' => 'Argentina',
            'AM' => 'Armenia',
            'AW' => 'Aruba',
            'AC' => 'Ascension Island',
            'AU' => 'Australia',
            'AT' => 'Austria',
            'AZ' => 'Azerbaijan',
            'BS' => 'Bahamas',
            'BH' => 'Bahrain',
            'BD' => 'Bangladesh',
            'BB' => 'Barbados',
            'BY' => 'Belarus',
            'BE' => 'Belgium',
            'BZ' => 'Belize',
            'BJ' => 'Benin',
            'BM' => 'Bermuda',
            'BT' => 'Bhutan',
        );
    }
}

I've trimmed this down for easy viewing but you can copy/paste the full country list from https://github.com/umpirsky/country-list/blob/master/data/en_US/country.php

This resource has other translations too.

Then all you need to do is reference this static function in your form definition:

    country:
      type: select
      label: Country
      data-options@: '\Grav\Theme\Antimatter::countryCodes'

here it is in the admin, but should work the same in the frontend too.
