I meant how I can get a list of all country names in this world the
same way Locale class did for languages in Locale.getISOLanguages()
function.

Tung Chau

Tried Locale.getISOCountries() and Locale.getDisplayCountry(Locale inLocale)
?

It's indeed a way to get a list of countries, but the OP asks if it's
possible "the same way Locale class did for languages".
