Will the server applies that countries timestamp?
No, as explained in the documentation (Firestore documentation but it is the same with a RTDB TIMESTAMP):
A Timestamp represents a point in time independent of any time zone or calendar, represented as seconds and fractions of seconds at nanosecond resolution in UTC Epoch time.
If you want to display the value according to the local time for a specific "nation" (i.e. time zone), it is up to you derive it from the UTC value. See, for example: How to convert UTC timestamp to device local time in android
