This works for me.
textLayer = thisComp.layer("01_country");
str1 = textLayer.text.sourceText; str1 = str1.toUpperCase();
if (str1 == 'ARG') ss = 90;
if (str1 == 'BRA') ss = 100;
if (str1 == 'USA') ss = 112;
else ss = 0; // or else you will get warning message and expression gets disabled. I'd leave this frame empty in the flags precomp.
framesToTime(ss); // you are after a static frame, right? if animation, like flag wave, is needed, then approach will be different.Nh

Can’t comment on the gammas and Premiere, however you probably aim for the colorspace standard that contains most of the info.
https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/wcm/connect/us/13df3b56-1aa0-4ee3-aca6-e66f51928849/20140904_4kdisplay_gamut.jpg?MOD=AJPERES&CVID=
This might help you to decide which colorspace to stick to. On other hand, going for ACES can be an overkill if you are not going to print on film or do some really advanced screening.
Make sure you not only set the desired working colorspace for the project and at least 16 bpc, Trillions_of_Colors in Render_output module and the codec that supports at least 10-bit encoding.. could be Quicktime with Avid DNxHR at it’s top quality.Nh

Was just wondering as Cyber is rather digital in it’s essence, while 24fps is more about analogue tech (film cinema), could be more steampunk related. ???? However, on the serious side, fps is rather serious thing to consider, as it depends on the target platform’s tech specs. Find this out before you downrate all the footage to 24fps.

you are right – my code is just replacement of the last line in your code.. blend those, add more values for other flags.

Sorry, not behind my workstation to tell exactly, so watch some tuts on Mocha, like https://borisfx.com/news/how-to-track-a-screen-in-mocha/ (search for word Surface), I guess it is in View Control section.

Why would you use markers? You have a timecode already. Make all the flags one second long and precomp in one sequence, then in main comp select that flag precomp and go to Time->Freeze Frame, and add your expression to the Time Remap channel (you should see a square key there now). Basically your expression should generate static second/frame number based on text you enter.
if (str1 == str2) a = 1; // this will display flag that is visible at 00:01:00 .. if your flags are frame long, then divide a with framerate, like a/25

I believe you can use interpolation commands, like linear.. which would look smth like this:
amp = amplitude;
slider = custom slider control to manage scale levels when necessary;
linear(amp, 0, slider, [100, 0], [100,100]);Nh

Have you checked tracking results inside Mocha with surface display on? I believe it looks like magenta grid, and should move with tracked part. It’s corners feed data to CornerPin
