How is this possible with an anonymous type?

I tried Countries[0]["Country"] but with no luck.

Answer 1

Just loop over your list - the anonymous type is anonymous - but still a strict type! You can get intellisense and should be able to access the fields Country and CountryID with no problem at all:

foreach(var c in yourListOfCountries)
{
   string countryName = c.Country;
   int countryID = c.CountryID;
}
