I don't know about Korea, but Poland and Lithuania were once the largest
nations in Europe.

You have to be very careful when talking about individual nations.
That's why I dislike the grouping idea, too.

That leaves 'England', 'Great-Britain', 'Russia' and 'Soviet Union'.
With 'China' and 'India' if we go by population.

For me, the more nations the merrier, and to group them is just
begging for trouble.
