ChinAPIs: Access Chinese Data via Public APIs and Curated Datasets
Provides functions to access data from public RESTful APIs including 'Nager.Date',
'World Bank API', and 'REST Countries API', retrieving real-time or historical data
related to China, such as holidays, economic indicators, and international demographic
and geopolitical indicators. Additionally, the package includes one of the largest
curated collections of open datasets focused on China and Hong Kong, covering topics
such as air quality, demographics, input-output tables, epidemiology, political
structure, names, and social indicators. The package supports reproducible research
and teaching by integrating reliable international APIs and structured datasets from
public, academic, and government sources.
For more information on the APIs, see:

'World Bank API' <https://datahelpdesk.worldbank.org/knowledgebase/articles/889392>,
and 'REST Countries API' <https://restcountries.com/>.
