What's you Favorite country with 'the' in the Name

I know that The Benelux is certainly not a country that I'll be voting for in this poll.
1. Because it's not in the poll and
2. Because it's not a country.

I had always believed it was a tiny little country. I was a little uncertain of its location, but I reckoned it was in Western Europe somewhere, squeezed in between some other small countries so that you'd barely notice it. I just checked Wikipedia to see if it ought to have a "The" before it or not and let me tell you, I'm pretty disillusioned to find out that Benelux is in fact an economic union comprising three neighbouring monarchies, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. The name is formed from the beginning of each country's name. So it's not a secret country hidden somewhere in Europe after all! Gah! You win again Geography!
