I knew the real count but I did not know what country is missing. It was the palestinian Territory. <br /> <br />I found here :) <br /> <br />Thankshttp://www.addedbytes.com/article/countries-select-box/comments/http://www.addedbytes.com/article/countries-select-box/comments/Comment by Nevermind ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />The country listed as "Macedonia" is referred to as "The former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia" within UN (http://www.un.org/members/list.shtml#t), EU and NATO (Also see the previously referred page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2 ). This is the correct name to use, because Macedonia is the name of a Greek province and there is a dispute over this name between Greece and FYROM, not yet solved.
