Inserting rows to a table from another SELECT - MySQL

I have a table called CountriesList with ID and Country columns.

I have another table called开发者_如何学Python Entries which have a column named Country.

I would like to INSERT all the countries in Entries into CountriesList... I am using the following syntax:

INSERT INTO CountriesList ('Country') 
SELECT DISTINCT ('Country')
FROM  `Entries`

However, I get

1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax

What is wrong with the syntax?

Don't mix up single quotes (') and backticks (`).

Backticks are for database and column names.

Single quotes are used for strings.

INSERT INTO `CountriesList`
(`Country`) 
SELECT DISTINCT `Country` FROM `Entries`

Insert into entries(country) 

     select distinct(country) from 

    countrylist where country not in

     (select country from entries)

It should be -

INSERT INTO CountriesList
(Country) 
SELECT DISTINCT Country FROM  Entries

try this insert into Entries (country) select country from CountriesList
