    35 down, 158 to go (going by members of the UN + Vatican City + Taiwan, but that bundles Greenland in w/ Denmark, and Tibet w/ China and so on).

    Are there countries with no bands?

    Edit: Hang on, S. America's not a country! And you've listed multiples, so that's... uh, more than 158 to go...
