Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the REST Countries Alternative MCP Server?
Connect your AI agent to the REST Countries database to retrieve instant, accurate information about any nation or territory in the world. This server provides a powerful interface to query geographic, economic, and political data through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Comprehensive Search — Find countries by common or official names, capital cities, or international codes (ISO 3166-1).
- Economic & Linguistic Data — Query countries based on the currencies they use or the languages spoken by their citizens.
- Regional Filtering — Browse nations by continent (Region) or specific subregions to analyze geographic clusters.
- Demographics & Identity — Search by demonyms (what citizens are called) or check independence status.
- Localized Results — Search for countries using translated names in various languages.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Since this is a public API, no specific token is required (enter 'public' if prompted)

Frequently asked questions
How do I retrieve a list of all countries with specific data points?
Use the get_all_countries tool. You must provide a comma-separated list in the fields parameter (e.g., 'name,capital,population') to specify exactly which information you want to receive.
Can I find countries based on the currency they use?
Yes! Use the search_by_currency tool and provide the currency name or code (like 'euro' or 'USD'). The agent will return all countries where that currency is legal tender.
Is it possible to filter countries by their geographic region?
Absolutely. Use the filter_by_region tool with values like 'Europe', 'Americas', 'Asia', 'Africa', or 'Oceania' to get a list of countries in that specific part of the world.
How does the Vercel AI SDK connect to MCP servers?
Import createMCPClient from @ai-sdk/mcp and pass the server URL. The SDK discovers all tools and provides typed TypeScript interfaces for each one.
Can I use MCP tools in Edge Functions?
Yes. The AI SDK is fully edge-compatible. MCP connections work on Vercel Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and similar runtimes.
Does it support streaming tool results?
Yes. The SDK provides streaming primitives like useChat and streamText that handle tool calls and display results progressively in the UI.
createMCPClient is not a function
