A solution to the REST Countries API with color theme switcher challenge

Solution retrospective

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

I found that in the case of this API it does not provide two things (or I did not find them in the documentation ):

it does not provide an ID for each country to make the individual country query more accurate. For this I solved by making use of the capital of each country, since it can have a unique capital.
It does not provide a pagination/offset to separate the data and not bring all in one request. To solve this I made use of Typescript to segment the data.
