SWIFT 4

Here is an elegant way of doing it in Swift 4

var countries: [String] = {

    var arrayOfCountries: [String] = []

    for code in NSLocale.isoCountryCodes as [String] {
        let id = NSLocale.localeIdentifier(fromComponents: [NSLocale.Key.countryCode.rawValue: code])
        let name = NSLocale(localeIdentifier: "en_UK").displayName(forKey: NSLocale.Key.identifier, value: id) ?? "Country not found for code: \(code)"
        arrayOfCountries.append(name)
    }

    return arrayOfCountries
}()
