- Refactor `generate_description_view.py` to improve candidate page selection and description retrieval.
- Update `CategoryDropdown.svelte` to simplify emoji selection handling and improve dropdown behavior.
- Add new translation keys in `en.json` for UI elements related to country descriptions.
- Modify `+page.svelte` and `+page.server.ts` in world travel routes to fetch and display country and region descriptions.

 - Network type should be set to your **custom network**.
 - **Note:** If you're running the server in a docker network that is other than "host" (for example "bridge"), then you need to add the IP of the host machine in the CSRF Trusted Origins variable instead of using localhost. This is only necessary when accessing locally, otherwise you will use the domain name.
