  Country.io is a small open data project that publishes a set of static JSON
  files mapping ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country codes to common reference data:
  country names, capital cities, ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 codes, continent codes,
  international telephone dialing prefixes, and ISO 4217 currency codes. The
  files are commonly consumed as a lightweight country-data dataset for
  forms, country pickers, and analytics enrichment.

      Country.io exposes six static JSON files under https://country.io. Each
      file is a flat object keyed by ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code and maps
      to a single reference value: country name, capital city, continent
      code, ISO3 code, dialing prefix, or currency code. The endpoints are
      open and unauthenticated.
