    When you make a search the location you search for it send to the Geocode API, which returns a set of coordinates. Those coordinates are used in combination with the set search radius to find locations in the database.

    The coordinates are always in the center of what you search for. So when you search for a country the marker is placed in the center, and from there a search is made for nearby locations based on the set search radius.

    The only way this will work for countries is if you set a huge search radius.
