Most Favored Nations

Keeping up the lists, here's one Ann Marie and I worked up a few years ago. I sent to McSweeney's a while back. Ms Lonsdale suggested I put it up here.

Countries Named After Myself And Friends:
  • Ann Mariethiopia
  • Elizabithuania
  • The Seanited Arab Emirates
  • Chad
Some others that didn't make the McSweeney submission:
  • Brystonia
  • Lundonesia
  • HANTarctica
  • Argentima Bassiri
  • Jack Tambabwe
  • Malawi MacBride
  • Saudi Booth Coleman
  • Jon Ryan Quinnsylvania
I'm sure there were others, and there will certainly be more. Feel free to throw in more.

I'm sad that HANTarctica wasn't submitted, as it is the best.

Um... a little belated, but can I propose Guinema-Bissau? I also like NiMali...
