The property Has location country is used to describe the country where something is located in.
It is of the datatype Page and a special case of the Property:Located in. Other properties for specifying locations are: property:Has location city, property:Has location state and property:Has location address.
When specifying the country in which an academic event takes or took place, using this property is not needed for the DOI registration process via DataCite but strongly recommended.
