# /country-extra [](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@iplookup/country-extra)
This is an API created to make [ip-location-api](https://github.com/sapics/ip-location-api) available for browsers.
The database itself is large at 7MB, so it is splitted into over 2000 pieces for fast downloading in a browser.
## Synopsis
```html
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@iplookup/country-extra/iplookup.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
async function run(){
var ip = "207.97.227.239"
var location = await IpLookup(ip)
console.log(location)
// {
