How to get the list of Administrative_area_level_1 for a given country from the Google Maps api?

I am creating an interactive drill map. I want to use lists that allow the user to drill from continents to a country in the Administrative_area_level_1 area.

Is there any way to request google api maps and get a list of administrator_area_level_1 names for a given country?

I looked in geocoding, which basically gives me lat / lng coordinates for the address, also looked at reverse geocoding, which will return the address components for the given lat / lng

doesn't matter ... I need a list of names administrator_area_level_1 for this country ...

I do not believe that Google has a complete list or API for this information, but there are several resources that may be useful:

Counties (US Census)

Cities (Google AdWords API

Geographic Goals (Google AdWords API)

This last one is ambiguous, but seems to include quite a lot. You can probably filter it out to what you need.

Unfortunately, the Google Maps API does not provide this feature. You will have to look for solutions such as the SimpleGeo API .
