Just as a matter of interest, does anyone know how many nationalities were involved in the creation of the current world record? Just a thought, as it could be possible to get a 'Most international piece of art' kind of thing dependant on the answer.

Also, on the subject of OMM, which countries do we have that aren't represented? Perhaps we should see if we can get them all? Anyone know how many we've got to go to get 'the whole set'?

Talked about this with T.J. on another thread. Don't know how accurate the 174 countries represented is but T.J. reckons there are 190 countries in the world so if my maths is upto scratch that leaves 16 countries not represented. Also asked for a pie chart showing breakdown of countries involved but nothing has come of that yet so don't know which ones are not on here. Would be interesting to know I agree.

I think there is more like 194 something countries in the world. You can't forget all of those really little/extremely unknown countries.
:]
But that still leaves roughly 20 unrepresented countries. It's really low considering there are that many countries in the world.

Well if the islands are all countries... personally I find the Caribean the heardest to keep check on because there are so many little islands that are independant, whereas I'm pretty sure I could produce a complete list of the countries in at least mainland North and South America, Europe and Asia without refering to anything. Africa is quite difficult too...
