Using the Service Container

$service = app('country-city-state');
$countries = $service->getCountries();

Direct Model Usage

use UsamaMuneerChaudhary\CountryCityState\Models\Country;
use UsamaMuneerChaudhary\CountryCityState\Models\State;
use UsamaMuneerChaudhary\CountryCityState\Models\City;

// Find country by ISO code
$country = Country::where('iso_code2', 'US')->first();

// Get all states for a country
$states = $country->states;

// Get all cities for a state
$cities = $states->first()->cities;

// Find state by name

// Reverse relationships
$city = City::find(1);
$state = $city->state; // BelongsTo relationship
$country = $state->country; // BelongsTo relationship
