SCRAPING DATA USING JSOUP LIBRARY

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Spring Boot application that retrieves info about countries by scraping data 

from World Bank, United Nations and Wikipedia.

Jsoup maven dependency added in pom.xml file:

```

    

        org.jsoup

        jsoup

```
