Request the football country directory to evaluate country navigation and code references for competition discovery. This GET takes no operation parameters. No country-directory response has been verified; inspect its names, codes and grouping before building a selector. Do not assume codes use a particular standard or can be passed unchanged to the odds operation, whose documented examples use BR and UK.
