 * Delete per nom. the only way this list could work is if the towns were named after the countries, and a reference could prove it. otherwise its just a collection of search results on wp, which does not a wp article make. Mercurywoodrose (talk) 05:50, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - WP:Trivia would apply if this were a subsection of USA. I think it still applies in this case as a merge would be the next logical step. Exit2DOS • Ctrl • Alt • Del 23:36, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as hopelessly unencyclopedic trivia. Tavix | Talk  00:16, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Ignoring the fact that neither Holland or Ceylon are the names of nations, it's just an unencyclopedic list someone dreamed up. Bradjamesbrown (talk) 05:09, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
