Only because you don't approve the existence of a country, it doesn't mean that everybody else does so too. If you want to do politics, do so, but don't bother open source projects with your convictions.

Hong Kong is not a country in anyway possible, but it’s included in your list

@Bnyro why not just be safer because no one is going to double check every name in that list?
