Can't be. England/UK isn't there.

I can rule out a couple things.
They are not all surrounded by water.
And they have not all been in any wars (at least anything significant in written history)

Britain is there. Isn't that the same thing?

They are all countries that are effected by the war on terror? http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_confused.gif Or are lending aid to Iraq?

Brittian is not the UK, the UK consists of Wales, Scotland, Engalnd and northern Ireland.
Brittain is the Brittish Isles, of which some parts are part of the UK, and other parts have their own separate governments.

I doubt it, but I could be wrong. Switzerland in on there, I don't think they would like that.

They all hate the French seperatists in Canada.

(I know Canada is on the list so don't bother with it.)

No I dont think you would be.

Well now we know the answer, that is something. I figured every country would have at least someone called at one point or another.
