Hi,

 

'Country' is the singular subject, so say 'has'.

“Which country has the tallest people ?

X has the talles people ( for example )

Which country has nuclear weapons ?

Y has nuclear weapons ( for example )


He/ she / it has

I / we / they / you  have 

The question in the sentences mentioned above is about " the country" which is considered as a singular subjct.

It has nothing to do with the object ( people, and weapons ) in your sentences.
