PSC country of residence not matching any resource

Hello,
I found that the country of residence in the PSC resource does not necessarily match any of the values from the Geographical names list (Geographical names - GOV.UK).

E.g. /company/07209813/persons-with-significant-control gives

...
"nationality": "American",
"country_of_residence": "Usa",
...

while “Usa” is not present in the Geographical names list. Does this mean that this is a free text where companies are allowed to submit virtually any value?
Does the same apply for nationalities?

Thank you,

Hi @roman,

It seems to be free text. There is no enumeration or validation.
I found more than 4700 distinct texts in nationality field and more than 5000 in country_of_residence.
