-# web4-cpp-header
-🛠 A C++ header file containing Spacetime (web4) primitives 🛸
+# Time and Space Antelope Smart Contract Utilities 🌍⏰
 
+Welcome to the EOSIO Smart Contract Utilities repository! This project provides essential C++ headers for EOSIO / Antelope smart contracts, designed to empower dapps on the WAX blockchain. It includes enumerations for countries, continents, and time spans, all designed for easy integration into your smart contracts.
 
-All files are in the `include` directory.
+This allows you to write contracts using common names instead of country codes, and ensures compatibilities when interacting with ISO 3166 (Alpha-2 and Alpha-3 [two and three lette codes]) nations and third-party contracts who also use this convention, like [Tetra](https://github.com/TetraGrids), and [cXc's Metadata Standards](https://github.com/currentxchange/WAX-NFT-Metadata-Standards).
+
+*All .hpp files are in the `include` directory.*

+### Countries Enumeration (`countries.hpp`) 🌍
+The `countries.hpp` header provides a comprehensive enumeration of countries (`Countries_ISO3`) using ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country codes.
+
+#### Key Features:
+- **Cross-Contract Compatibility**: Enum values are explicitly numbered for consistent cross-contract compatibility.
+- **Comprehensive Country List**: Includes a wide range of countries, each represented by their ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 codes.
+
+#### Usage in EOSIO Smart Contract:
+```cpp
+#include "countries.hpp"
+
+// Example: Retrieving a country code
+Countries_ISO3 country_code = Countries_ISO3::USA; // Retrieves the code for USA
+
+// Action demonstrating the use of country code
+[[eosio::action]]
+void showCountryCode() {
+    Countries_ISO3 country_code = Countries_ISO3::FRA; // Code for France
+    eosio::print("Country Code: ", static_cast<int>(country_code));
+}
+```
+
+### Continents Enumeration (`continents.hpp`) 🌐
+The `continents.hpp` header includes an enumeration of continents (`Continents`), providing a straightforward way to categorize geographical data.
+
+#### Key Features:
+- **Simple and Efficient**: Easy-to-use enumeration of all the continents.
+- **Versatile Usage**: Suitable for geographic categorization and analysis.
+
+#### Usage in EOSIO Smart Contract:
+```cpp
+#include "continents.hpp"
+
+// Example: Retrieving a continent
+Continents continent = Continents::EUROPE; // Retrieves Europe
+
+// Action demonstrating the use of continent enumeration
+[[eosio::action]]
+void showContinent() {
+    Continents continent = Continents::ASIA; // Selects Asia
+    eosio::print("Selected Continent: ", static_cast<int>(continent));
+}
+```
+
+### Time Enumeration (`time.hpp`) ⏰
+The `time.hpp` header includes enumerations for common time spans, making time management in contracts more intuitive.
+
+#### Key Features:
+- **Varied Time Units**: Ranges from seconds to weeks for flexible time calculations.
+- **Simplified Time Handling**: Streamlines time-related operations in contracts.
+
+#### Usage in EOSIO Smart Contract:
+```cpp
+#include "time.hpp"
+
+// Example: Retrieving a time span value
+In time_span = In::Hour; // Retrieves the value for an hour (3600 seconds)
+
+// Action demonstrating the use of time span
+[[eosio::action]]
+void showTimeSpan() {
+    In time_span = In::Day; // Value for a day (86400 seconds)
+    eosio::print("Time Span in seconds: ", static_cast<int>(time_span));
+}
+```
+
