The country data, including continent and capital information, was sourced from this Gist by tiagodealmeida. The original data was enriched by integrating additional details like dial codes and currency codes.
The flag emojis used in the metadata were sourced from the country-flag-emoji-json repository by Risan.
The countries_metadata.json` file was generated by processing data from the country-flag-emoji-json repository and augmenting it with information sourced from tiagodealmeida's Gist. This resulted in a comprehensive dataset containing various details for each country.
