It's going to be a royal pain in the butt, but they *must* be translated one
way or the other. Many non-English speakers will not recognize Anglicized
country names outside of their own. This is especially true outside of the
countries that use Roman alphabet, but may still be true in those countries
as well.

On the bright side, they'll almost never need updates, so we only have to
do this once.
