Is there a reason / rule to use the exact spelling of a country as stated on the item on CW? If not: England + Great Britain + Great Britain & gt; & gt; United Kingdom.

I think CW is an international platform, so in my opinion also the international name, in this case Great Britain;

We'll leave it as it is, Jan. Probably later this year we will also be able to save the country table in 4 languages at Match Brands. Then it dissolves itself. Unfortunately, the country is still monolingual in several sections.

As long as the 4-language country table is not yet available for all sections, isn't it better to use the correct spelling in the Dutch language for the Dutch-language input fields?
Then later if the table is there, the data can be transferred more easily.

I don't want to change too much of tables because that is a big load for the current servers. Every item that is attached to such a table, also in the shops, must then be adjusted in the search engine. Soon that problem will be solved and I can look further.

Understandably, you don't want to change / adjust the tables at the moment.
I was not referring to that either, but more to the fact that if a country has to be entered somewhere, then only the agreed name is used by the importers.
See, among others, ISO-3166-1

So, for example, Great Britain should be entered as: United Kingdom.
This of course only in the Dutch-language input fields.

they will continue to exist. At the time of the existence of the object, that country simply existed under that name, nothing will change ...
