1 Ah, that seems like a new point of view. Let me see if I get this straight. 
Over time, some countries have received colloquial names in English. This is a 
completely arbitrary set, determined by historical events, personal tastes of 
news editors etc.
Are you saying that other languages should have conformed themselves to the 
arbitrary set of English colloquial names and never should never have developed 
such where English didn't?

2 Not sure where to fix it, but the simplest solution would seem to be
to create double entries for English for all countries, even if they
sometimes have the same values. That way other languages can differ
where necessary like English can.

(And #44528 is not a duplicate of this. )
