[FEATURE REQUEST] search_countries() method #36

Closed Siegi96 closed 1 month ago

Siegi96 commented 1 year ago

Would it be possible to add alternate names for countries and a search_country() method, like it exists for cities?

yaph commented 1 year ago

I'd need a dataset with alternate country names. Also there is the possibility of ambiguities for example Korea and Kongo.
