Here goes:

United States Romania Niger Antartica
Canada Ireland Nigeria Yemen
Mexico Albania Chad Krygrezstan

Haiti France Australia Democratic Republic of Congo
Jamaica Nepal New Zealand Malawai
Peru Bhutan Papua New Guinea Russia

Not bad. 130 total. There are 113 I couldn't name.
That's a LOT of countries.

I know you used the song. I just can't figure out how you typed this out. P.S. stop trying to up your post count by making lists.

mmmm...
Malta is in your list twice, and Persia isn't a country, unless your list is of Empires from Biblical Times.
Nice work though, got some good ones...
