As Gaetan pointed out, it is not the job of Linux distribution maintainers
to decide country names. But it seems to me this whole issue is not really
about deciding what to name a country as that decision has already been
made by many. The fact is simply that the data being used does not

No. This is a Linux distribution; deciding what countries should be
called is just not what we do. Our website uses the django country list;
please direct any complaints there.
Well... Given the action taken by some developers in this thread, I can't

I am the reporter of FS#30444, and I've filed and patched a bug of a
little project with the identical problem:
If you are using iso-codes from extra repo, there is a common name of
“Taiwan, Province of China” which is named “Taiwan”. And by using
that, “Taiwan, Province of China” and “Venezuela, B
Do never remove any mirrors from the mirrorlist!
Acturally, if a Taiwan user tries to connect a China mirror, the connection
is really really slow. The same as Hong Kong or Macau, although they belong
to China.
If you remove any mirror from the mirrorlist, only trouble will be brought
to the use
