## About

## What it does
Country Details returns reference data for a single country when you send an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code in the `country` query parameter. It is built for lookups where you need a compact, machine-readable country record without pulling a larger dataset.

The response includes `data.key` for the alpha-2 code, `data.cca3` for the alpha-3 code, `data.emoji`, `data.value` for the country name, and `data.currency` with the currency code, emoji, English name, and symbol. You also get `data.calling_codes` for the country’s telephone calling codes.

If you need administrative detail, the response can also include `data.subdivision`, an array of subdivision objects with ISO 3166-2 `code` values and `name` values. That makes it useful for country pickers, checkout forms, profile defaults, locale-aware onboarding, and systems that need to map a country code to its display name, currency, and dialing prefix.

Use Country Details when your app stores a country code and you want the canonical metadata back in one response, without maintaining your own reference tables.
