AIUI, the wrong quotes in your statement made the parser take Country.id
as a string, which was then to be compared to an integer (the country_id
column). This comparison forced a conversion from string to number, and
the string contained a dot which was assumed to be a decimal point,
hence a floating point number.

If 171 is the number of rows in your countries table, then it is also
the number of times this comparison is done.

The warnings should be gone, I assume, now that you fixed the quoting.
