Laravel Dynamic Dropdown

Question

I am trying to create two dropdown menus. This is a selection of countries and states from my database. My problem is that you do not know how to create the conditions in which states should depend on countries. When I select [countryname], a different name for the states will appear in my drop-down list. So far I have done so far.

AdminController.php

public function user_register()
    {
        $countryname = DB::table('countries')
            ->get();
        $statename = DB::table('states')
            ->get();

        $title = ucwords(Lang::get('constants.user') . ' ' . Lang::get('constants.register')); 
        return View::make('register.user_register')
            ->with('title', $title)
            ->with('page', 'user_register')
            ->with('countryname', $countryname)
            ->with('statename', $statename)
    }

user_register.blade.php

<select class="form-control" id="countries" name="countries">
    <option value="">Please select</option>
        <?php foreach ($countryname as $key=>$countryname): ?>
        <option value="<?php echo $countryname->sortname; ?>"<?php
         if (isset($countries) && Input::old('countries') == $countryname->sortname) 
         {
             echo 'selected="selected"';
         }
         ?>>
         <?php  echo $countryname->sortname ." - ". $countryname->name  ; ?>
    </option>
    <?php endforeach; ?>
</select>


<select class="form-control" id="states" name="states">
    <option value="">Please select</option>
        <?php foreach ($statename as $key=>$statename): ?>
        <option value="<?php echo $countryname->name; ?>" <?php
        if (isset($states) && Input::old('states') == $statename->name)
        {
            echo 'selected="selected"';
        }
        ?>>
        <?php  echo $statename->name; ?></option>
        <?php endforeach; ?>
</select>

In my database

Table: Countries

+-----------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field     | Type         | Null | Key | Default | Extra          |
+-----------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| country_id| int(11)      | NO   | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment |
| sortname  | varchar(3)   | NO   |     | NULL    |                |
| name      | varchar(150) | NO   |     | NULL    |                |
| phonecode | int(11)      | NO   |     | NULL    |                |
+-----------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+

Table: Status

+------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field      | Type             | Null | Key | Default | Extra          |
+------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| id         | int(10) unsigned | NO   | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment |
| name       | varchar(255)     | NO   |     | NULL    |                |
| country_id | int(11)          | NO   |     | NULL    |                |

            'countries' => Country::all(),
            'states' => State::all(),
        ]);
    }

//home.blade.php

<select name="country">

</select>

<select name="state">
    @foreach ($states as $state)

            $.get(url, function(data) {
                var select = $('form select[name= state]');

                select.empty();

                $.each(data,function(key, value) {
                    select.append('<option value=' + value.id + '>' + value.name + '</option>');

ajax user_register.blade.php:

    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="title">Select Country:</label>
        <select name="country" class="form-control">
            <option value="">--- Select country ---</option>
            @foreach ($countries as $key => $value)
                <option value="{{ $value }}">{{ $value }}</option>
            @endforeach
        </select>
    </div>
    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="title">Select state:</label>
        <select name="state" class="form-control">
        </select>
    </div>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function() {
    $('select[name="country"]').on('change', function() {
        var countryID = $(this).val();
            if(countryID) {
            $.ajax({
                url: '/admin/user_register/ajax/'+encodeURI(countryID),
                type: "GET",
                dataType: "json",
                success:function(data) {
                $('select[name="state"]').empty();
                $.each(data, function(key, value) {
                    $('select[name="state"]').append('<option value="'+ value +'">'+ value +'</option>');
                    });
                }
            });
            }else{
            $('select[name="state"]').empty();
              }
           });
        });
    </script>

, .php:

url: '/admin/user_register/ajax/'+encodeURI(countryID),

routes.php:

    //dynamic dropdown country and states
Route::get('/admin/user_register/ajax/{country_id}',array('as'=>'user_register.ajax','uses'=>'AdminController@stateForCountryAjax'));

AdminController.php:

public function stateForCountryAjax($country_name)
{
    $country_name = urldecode($country_name);
    $country_id = $this->_stateCountryIDForCountryName($country_name);
    $states = DB::table("states")
                ->where("country_id",$country_id)
                ->lists('name','id');
    return json_encode($states);
}

private function _stateCountryIDForCountryName($country_name)
{
    return DB::table('countries')->where("name","$country_name")->first()->country_id;
}
