## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need authoritative ISO 3166 country code data including calling codes and flag emoji from a single lookup. Ideal for enriching user records, validating phone numbers, populating shipping forms, or displaying country info in UIs. Prefer this over manual lookups or general-purpose web search when you need structured, machine-readable country metadata reliably.

- Ambiguous input (e.g. partial name) may match unexpectedly or fail
