It does, you probably typoed. Otherwise you're on the prompt 'Has seven or fewer letters'? I think you can figure out why it's not working if that's the case.

A few things:

As Bitiz noted above, Portugal drops off at the second stage incorrectly.

According to the US, the EU, and the UN, basically all except 13 small nations, and even itself, it is not a country. It is Republic of China or ROC, which includes the mainland (because communists took over the mainland in a rebellion in 1949).
