Wikipedia
countries
A country is a distinct part of the world, such as a state, nation, or other political entity. It may be a sovereign state or make up one part of a larger state. For example, the country of Japan is an independent, sovereign state, while the country of Wales is a component of a multi-part sovereign state, the United Kingdom. A country may be a historically sovereign area (such as Korea), a currently sovereign territory with a unified government (such as Senegal), or a non-sovereign geographic region associated with certain distinct political, ethnic, or cultural characteristics (such as the Basque Country). The definition and usage of the word "country" is flexible and has changed over time. The Economist wrote in 2010 that "any attempt to find a clear definition of a country soon runs into a thicket of exceptions and anomalies." Most sovereign states, but not all countries, are members of the United Nations. The largest country by area is Russia, while the smallest is the microstate Vatican City. The most populous is China, while the Pitcairn Islands are the least populous.

Examples of countries in a Sentence
I think they understand who the malign actor is here and I think they'll see all the countries in the region, including the United States, as truly trying to help them.
They are the two countries that still believe that an agreement is feasible. The U.S. gave up a while ago on this aspiration. These are the two countries that apparently still have some credibility in Russia, that are seen as not being anti-Russia.
In these countries there is some risk but not high risk.
I don't think it's fair to expect countries to have perfect transitions overnight, or maybe even in 24 years (since Soviet disintegration in the region, in 1991). But I do think it's fair to expect them to not regress significantly.
The overall ambition of the developed countries is still not sufficient.
