[QUOTE="jlblonde, post: 1296990, member: 32000"]You right. Those facts are outdated. North America may now have a forth country, Greenland. For the purposes of cataloging my collection I placed these areas under Small European States and Territories. It made sense to me because having a 1" binder for the Falklands and Saint Helena under Atlantic countries and areas seemed a waste of space. I simply drew upon my old schooling from 20 years ago. I have seen some collections place Hawaii and US/Philippines in the Pacific Island nations while others have it in American collections. But in the end I suppose your are right. Political leanings and personal feelings aside, those countries and or territories should be placed in their respective geographical areas. Example: When the Soviet Union was dismantled, new countries such as Turkmenistan were cataloged under Russian Commonwealth of Nations in some books. Now they fall under their own, Central Asian Nations.[/QUOTE]
