But our country list is not a statement of national sovereignty or diplomatic recognition. Bands are not state actors, they are private entities. Which is why we have "international" for bands that don't associate with a country.

Also, k7, Palestine is recognized by 140 states, Israel is recognized by 165. How do you get to say "not a country"?

unless they make changes I don't see

We follow the IOC with our countrylist. Anything that's on here [link] should be on MS

start editing any band and look at the country field.

We have Palestine

My english isnt the best but BE you cant even read - "as a gesture."
