So, no. With the way you have it setup right now you would need to adjust your JSON structure to have the nation info be under a key, as well as the people array.
Every value has to have a key, unless it is the only value being serialized.
Is valid JSON, but
Is not
An untagged enum doesn't need keys for the variants. It just tries to deserialize into each variant in the order defined.
That being said, you're right that the JSON is invalid.
Yeah, I wasn't trying to imply that it was a problem on the rust side or that they needed to name the keys that way, just that the JSON does need to have keys because that is how JSON works
