# Residential Proxies Country

Source: https://docs.evomi.com/proxy-instructions/residential-proxies/geo-targetting/country/

You can target a specific country by using the `country` parameter in your proxy string. This parameter allows you to connect to a proxy located in a specific country.

You can specify any country in the ISO format (e.g., `US` for the United States, `CA` for Canada, etc.).
For some countries the full name is supported aswell (e.g., `UnitedStates` for the United States, `Canada` for Canada, etc.).

```bash
curl -x http://rp.evomi.com:1000 -U testuser:testpassword_country-US https://ip.evomi.com/s
```

  Note that you can find all available countries in the dashboard via our [Proxy Generator](https://docs.evomi.com/proxy-instructions/proxy-generator/).
