I know this is a controversial topic, but it's not quite right to say that "Burma" isn't a country. Many countries, including the US, still officially use "Burma," and the current State Counsellor of Myanmar has stated that either name is acceptable,and that she herself very often uses "Burma."

Also, and this may be overly picky I know, but should "Asia" count as an answer? I mean, yes, of course it's not a country and was mentioned in the song, but it was used as specifier for Bangladesh, like saying Los Angeles, California. You can tell because only Bangladesh lights up on Yakko's map for both words.

Oh, and would you consider accepting "Campuchia" as an alternate spelling for "Kampuchea"? I've often seen it written that way.

If Republic Dominican doesn't count then the Philippine Islands shouldn't count either.
