Translation files for the various strings are included as well. ******************** Data update policy ******************** No changes to the data will be accepted into pycountry. This is a pure wrapper around the ISO standard using the ``pkg-isocodes`` database from Debian *as is*. If you need changes to the political situation in the world, please talk to the ISO or Debian people, not me. ****************************** Donations / Monetary Support ****************************** This is a small project that I maintain in my personal time. I am not interested in personal financial gain. However, if you would like to support the project then I would love if you would donate to [Feminist Frequency] instead. Also, let the world know you did so, so that others can follow your path. *************** Contributions *************** The code lives in a [git repository on GitHub ], and issues must be reported in there as well. ************************ Countries (ISO 3166-1) ************************ Countries are accessible through a database object that is already configured upon import of pycountry and works as an iterable: .. code:: pycon >>> import pycountry >>> len(pycountry.countries) 249 >>> list(pycountry.countries)[0] Country(alpha_2='AF', alpha_3='AFG', name='Afghanistan', numeric='004', official_name='Islamic Republic of Afghanistan') Specific countries can be looked up by their various codes and provide the information included in the standard as attributes: .. code:: pycon >>> germany = pycountry.countries.get(alpha_2='DE') >>> germany Country(alpha_2='DE', alpha_3='DEU', name='Germany', numeric='276', official_name='Federal Republic of Germany') >>> germany.alpha_2 'DE' >>> germany.alpha_3 'DEU' >>> germany.numeric '276' >>> germany.name 'Germany' >>> germany.official_name 'Federal Republic of Germany' There's also a "fuzzy" search to help people discover "proper" countries for names that might only actually be subdivisions. The fuzziness also includes normalizing unicode accents. There's also a bit of prioritization included to prefer matches on country names before subdivision names and have countries with more matches be listed before ones with fewer matches: .. code:: pycon >>> pycountry.countries.search_fuzzy('England') [FILE:112:distinfo] f1a4fb391cd7214f8eefd39556d740adcc233c778a27f8942c8dca351d6ce06f 6335189 pycountry-24.6.1-py3-none-any.whl
