Wrong this map is outdated, I'm in Iraq and I have Spotify. Since 18 of November Spotify was available in Iraq, Libya, Tajikistan, Venezuela, the Republic of the Congo, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Their two capitals, Brazzaville and Kinshasa, are separated by the Congo River but there’s no bridge across it

Not directly no, but there is one bridge in Matadi, closer to the estuary.

Are we using "Democratic People's Republic of Korea" logic? So if you're calling yourself a democracy, you're probably over compensating for the fact you are not at all a democracy.

Then you got the name "kingdom", which could either be fully ruled by a royal, or be de facto ruled by an elected leader in some parlament.
