This is not the right repo to do this as it is an UI for the nominatim software, not the nominatim.osm.org instance. An enhancement of the UI on osm.org needs...

We don't have the information about the relevant object on the Nominatim side. The country is computed from the country code and the `country_name` table. I see two options here:...
