Half the alphabet

App only displays countries starting with A to L. What happened to M thru Z?

Only half the countries...

Only countries from A to L, Afghanistan to Luxembourg have dedicated pages. No US, UK, Russia, Türkiye etc, they show up as stats with no context. I guess you have to pay for that version.

Highly Informative

It’s a great app, and has certainly made a lot of research about lesser known companies easier.
