7/ Probably the most confusing country is the United Kingdom ๐ฌ๐ง with "countries" like Scotland ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ and England ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ, but also places like Channel Islands ๐ฏ๐ช ๐ฌ๐ฌ and the Isle of Man ๐ฎ๐ฒ that are technically not part of the UK, but many people think are.
So confusing that there are online tutorials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNu8XDBSn10
We covered this a bit in our thread about British Overseas Territories
8/ Another point of confusion is placenames that everyone knows and uses, but that have no official basis.
For example, tell anyone in London ๐ฌ๐ง to meet you for dinner in Chinatown, and they know exactly where you mean. But it is not an "official" placename in any sense. But that's a topic for another thread
