Well, there is a long wp article about it with a clear description for a start.

From that I understand, general stores are tiny department stores - i.e. a 
hyper market is to a convenience store as a department store is to a general 
store.

As it is about what they are selling, not where they can probably be found, 
"general" certainly seems like a better fit than "country"... If country_- and 
general_store are even supposed and understood by mappers as being the same 
thing.
