To retrieve the country the console is set to — independent of the package manifest — use GetUserDefaultGeoName. “User” here refers to the signed-in session; the API returns the country the console is set to.
GetUserDefaultGeoName is useful when the locale returned by GetUserDefaultLocaleName is en-GB. Several countries use the UK English locale for simplification (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Greece) — the geo name tells them apart.
