== DATA SOURCE:
IsoCountryCodes pulls its data from the Wikipedia ISO 3166-1 tables
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1), combined with a small number of
overrides contained in the overrides.yml
file. For example, the country name
of TWN is overridden to "Taiwan" from "Taiwan, Province of China", to make it
less politicised.
The format of the overrides.yml
file is the 3-letter alpha country
code as the key, and the fields one wants to override as follows:
"TWN": :name: "Taiwan"
