You should make USA work for the United States, UK for the United Kingdom, PRC(People's Republic of China) for China, and DPRK (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) for North Korea (these are accepted by other quizzes). Also, South Korea (ROK (Republic of Korea)) and Taiwan (ROC (Republic of China)) are included in the book. Taiwan is independent from China according to the JetPunk community.
