"LLL:EXT:dcdgooglemap/locallang_db.xml:tx_dcdgooglemap_poi.country",
                  "config" => array (
                        "type" => "select",
                        "foreign_table"       => "static_countries",
                        "items" => array(
                                   array( '', 0 )
                                ),
                        "size" => "1",
                        "minitems" => "1",
