Hello Monks,
I wrote a module recently for work that I was also considering uploading to CPAN. I am still unsure of the name space, too. Anyways, after an insightful peer review, my essential question is: should I use Moose at all? I understand that this is a pretty small module- which may mean making the dependency silly. The module will take a country code from the user and return a status for it. I considered using the Locale::Country name space, but I'm not a huge fan of how it is used for getting country codes: https://metacpan.org/pod/distribution/Locale-Codes/lib/Locale/Country.pod
Any insight is greatly appreciated :) 
package My::Module;

use strict;
use warnings;
use Moose;
use namespace::autoclean;
use Carp;

use feature 'switch';

has country_code => (
    is       => 'rw',
    isa      => 'Str',
    required => 1,
);

has sanction => (
    is      => 'ro',
    isa     => 'Bool',
    lazy    => 1,
    writer  => 'set_sanction',
    reader  => 'get_sanction',
    default => 0,
);

sub status {
    my $self         = shift;
    my $country_code = shift;

    given ($country_code) {
        when (m/MMR|MM/) { $self->set_sanction(1) }
        when (m/IRN|IR/) { $self->set_sanction(1) }
        when (m/CUB|CU/) { $self->set_sanction(1) }
        when (m/SSD|SS/) { $self->set_sanction(1) }
        when (m/PRK|PK/) { $self->set_sanction(1) }
        when (m/SYR|SY/) { $self->set_sanction(1) }
        when ( !defined ) {
            croak "Country Code undefined";
        }
    }
    my $result = $self->get_sanction;
    return $result;
}

__PACKAGE__->meta->make_immutable;
