You're supposed to go in order of the blue highlight. South Korea fits for that, but it would have already been used by "<2 languages" because Philippines has 2

There is a sequence/order on how you choose.

If two countries fit a hint, one of the two is most likely used on a different hint earlier.

Really interesting twist on this series!

The colour scheme was a bit headachy though...

Thanks! Originally I had to keep it green for the disappearing effect when guessed correctly, but I now know how to change it if anyone else finds the background to be too bright :)

No, it isn’t a country. It’s an observer state, like Palestine (different reasons, obviously, but still the same sort of thing)!

It is an observer state, but it is still a country. Of the two observer states, the Vatican is a country, but Palestine is not.

You have to pick the country that fits ALL the clues remaining, not just the one in blue. USA doesn't fit at the point you're mentioning because "is in Asia" is still there at that point.

Netherlands has land outside Europe and is not completely located in Europe, so technically fits the bill. It needs to be reworded simply as "Not in Europe".
