Research direction

Start with the eager-loading failure described in the issue and inspect the block at lib/active_utils.rb line 12. Read the referenced ActiveSupport eager_autoload documentation and verify whether moving that block into eager_autoload is safe. Done means eager loading no longer raises uninitialized constant ActiveUtils::Country.
