In edit profile what does country exactly mean? (This is not a shitpost)

A country is a distinct territorial body or political entity (i.e. a nation). It is often referred to as the land of an individual's birth, residence or citizenship. Countries can refer both to sovereign states and to other political entities, while other times it can refer only to states.

Thanks google.
