title: how to get an administrative_area_level_1 list for a given country from google maps api?
body: <p>I'm building a drill down interactive map
  I want to use lists, that will enable the user to drill from continent to country to administrative_area_level_1 regions</p>
  
  <p>is there a way to query google maps api and get a list of administrative_area_level_1 names for a given country?</p>
  
  <p>I looked in geocoding - which gives me essentially a lat/lng coordinates for an address
  also looked at reverse geocoding, that will return address components for a given lat/lng</p>
  
  <p>not relevant...
  i need a list of administrative_area_level_1 names for a given country...</p>
