Overview
Imports country/state/region names to a taxonomy from geonames.org
This module uses the "children" (http://www.geonames.org/export/place-hierarchy.html#children) function of geonames.org. This seems to just drill down by administration divisions, which may be different for each country.
Why I made this to work in the front end with javascript rather than with the batch API, I don't know. I must have been drunk that night.
You are probably better off not using this module. It was just a quick way to import countries to a taxonomy for a single site I did. One day I might rewrite it if I need it again
