Programmatically set the selected country at runtime

[ghost]

I can prgrammatically set a country in this way:

$('#select_country').attr('data-selected-country','CN');

before issue $('#select_country').flagStrap(); After that I'm not able to change the current country via jQuery anymore.

Would you please help me to understand how to?
