The United Nations Geospatial Data, or Geodata, is a worldwide geospatial
dataset of the United Nations.
The United Nations Geodata is provided to facilitate the preparation of
cartographic materials in the United Nations includes geometry, attributes
and labels to facilitate the adequate depiction and naming of geographic
features for the preparation of maps in accordance with United Nations
policies and practices.
The geospatial dataset include polygons/areas of countries
(BNDA_simplified). Please refer this page
