This is relatively trivial and can be done easily with some javascript. However the ease of implementing this will depend very much on how your data is stored and whether you need a round trip to the server on every change in selection. Personally, I'd dump the data into a json format on page load - so no need to use ajax or anything else.
I'm assuming that your data is normalized and stored in a DB.
Hmm, re-reading the post, you say 'country' - that seems like a heck of a lot of data stored for state and city. The following is assuming every city MUST have a state:
COUNTRIES
FIELD TYPE
------------- ----------------
country_id TINYINT(3) UNSIGNED
country_code VARCHAR(10)
country_label VARCHAR(20)
STATES
FIELD TYPE
----------- ----------------
state_id INT(5) UNSIGNED
state_code VARCHAR(5)
state_label VARCHAR(30)
country_id TINYINT(3)
CITIES
FIELD TYPE
---------- ----------------
city_id INT(5) UNSIGNED
city_label VARCHAR(20)
state_id INT(5)
The _code fields are optional.
