How do you solve the problem that some areas that are claimed by more than one country or are claimed by countries that are recognized/not recognized by other countries?

It doesn't appear to, there's just a hardcoded geo json file it queries against: https://github.com/ideditor/country-coder/blob/master/src/da...

Kashmir, for instance, is only part of Pakistan.

Still an interesting exercise in geojson. I'm impressed that github automatically renders the shapefile, rather than just the text.
