## What it is
A TypeScript-based dataset package providing countries, languages, and continents data including ISO 3166-1 codes, capitals, ISO 4217 currencies, native names, calling codes, and emoji flags. Data is available in JSON, CSV, and SQL formats via npm and Composer packages.

## Use cases
- populate a country dropdown with names, codes, and flags
- look up a country's calling code or currency for a phone or billing form
- map ISO alpha-2 codes to alpha-3 codes
- get emoji flag for a country code
- find country code by country name including native names
- load country/language data into a database from SQL or CSV dumps
- build an i18n locale selector with languages and continents

## When to choose
- you need static reference data for countries, languages, or currencies in JS/TS or PHP
- you want strongly typed country data with IDE auto-complete
- you need multiple formats (JSON, CSV, SQL) or minimal bundle-friendly files

## When to avoid
- you need localized country names in many UI languages rather than English/native names
- you need frequently updated geopolitical data like disputed territories or time zones
- you need geolocation or IP-to-country resolution rather than static reference data

## Facets
