I think I'll cope - three years of being asked 'Are you from Sydney?' and having the neighbours theme song sung at me has kind of killed any 'I'm not an f**king Australian' feeling left in me. I just shrug my shoulders and get on with it...

Kiwi? I can usually tell by the accent.
My apologies if you're actually from Tristan Da Cunha or somewhere.

Being wrongly considered Australian must be worse than being given a PF department to share with Brazilians, Chileans, Tongans and the people of Mozambique. That sounds like quite a lot of fun.

You can?? I'm excited! Seriously... today I got asked if I was from Canada.

Christchurch...

I'd recommend that Tonga shares with New Zealand, given that there are 176,000 Tongans in the world, and a third of them live in New Zealand.

Mozambique can socialise with the South Africans (I know there are a couple floating around on this forum... :-)
See I'm good, aren't I? :-)

Polonia - UK and Ireland it is

Bardzo Dobrze :)
Well done - I never got round to bringing up the previous heading..., now it's too late :D

I do not know of such a name for this northwest corner of Europe that keeps everyone in Britain and Ireland happy

"The British Isles" is a non-political, accurate geographical term for the islands. - It keeps some of the people happy most of the time!
