I'm considering changing the wording of the main countrychooser
question.

Currently, this is, very simply:

"Choose a country:"


Indeed, several entries in the list (taken from ISO-3166) are not
countries, strictly speaking.

The most important example seems to be "Taiwan" which is, BOTH for the
"People Republic of China" (usually called "China", member of UN) and
the "Republic of China" (usually calle "Taiwan", non UN member) *only*
"Taiwan, Province of China".

Other politically sensitive ones would be AFAICS Palestine or
Northern Cyprus.

wouldn't it also be FYROM (or FYRO Macedonia) for The Former Yugoslav Republic Of Macedonia instead of plain Macedonia ?
