title: Populate Dropdown in MVC with API data
body: <p>I am relatively new to MVC, and still confused, therefore I need help with a problem.</p>
  
  <p>I have created a web scraper console app where I compare two articles(where I fetch the data from a certain API), now I want to make this an MVC project where I have two dropdown lists that need to be filled with data from the above-mentioned API so that I can compare the two articles. </p>
  
  <p>Unfortunately for me, I do not know how to populate these drop downs, that is, I do not know what logic goes in the controller and the model... Can someone give me a hint or recommend a good read because I am totally lost.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
  
  <p>Edit:
  Something like this:
