# Country Info Lookup

> Country Info Lookup is a paid API for AI agents from x402-deployer.x402-deployer.workers.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Resolves country metadata by name, ISO 3166 code, or capital city, returning capital, region, population, currencies, languages, timezones, calling code, flag emoji, and neighboring countries

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability x402-deployer-x402-deployer-workers-dev-2aa9fca9 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the country info for Germany — I need the capital, population, currency, official languages, timezones, international calling code, flag emoji, and which countries it borders?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need rich country metadata (currency, language, timezone, calling code, neighbors, flag) from a simple name or code lookup. Prefer this over general web search when structured, machine-readable country data is required for downstream processing, enrichment, or display.

## Known failure modes

- Country name not recognized — ambiguous or misspelled input returns no match
- Invalid ISO code format returns error
- Capital city not unique to one country may return multiple results
- REST Countries v3.1 upstream outage causes 502/503
- Dependent territory or unrecognized state may not be in the dataset

## How this service works

Country info lookup. Resolves country metadata by common name, ISO 3166 alpha-2/alpha-3 code, or capital city. Returns capital, region, population, area, currencies, languages, timezones, calling code, flag emoji, neighbors. Wraps the public REST Countries v3.1 API — no auth, commercial-OK.

## Output

Returns a structured object with capital city, world region, population count, land area, list of currencies, official languages, timezones, international dialing/calling code, flag emoji, and an array of neighboring/border countries — sourced from REST Countries v3.1.
