No two country codes are the same - makes a good natural primary key.
There is no need to create synthetic key in this situation (and
additional index on the country code column). However, for most cases I
use synthetic key - just to make sure I don't run into a wall one day.

even then, no matter what, you can always find a way to use an int.
why with country codes?

Almost always int, rarely a char (like country codes etc).

Why do you prefer
1. int (Identity / auto_increment)
2. char maybe with CreateUUID()
3. varchar
other?
Thanks!
