Question Countries and Capitals - how do you pronounce them?

Hello.
I am a law/legal english instructor at Taras Shechenko Univeristy's Institute of International Relations in Kiev, Ukraine. Does anyone know where I might find a downloadable pronounciation guide (transliteration or phonetical) of countries and their capitals?

Thank you.

I've never seen one and Google doesn't show anything I'm afraid. Maybe someone will be able to come up with one.

Thank you.
The Voice of America website offers a few such files but that's it. I haven't been able to find a web site with phonetic or transliteration guides . It seems that the Mirriam-Webster Geographic Dictionary is the only resource.
Thanks again.
