Damion Dooley's note: A 'sovereign state' entity should have attribute or relationships to measurables - population, size, name, etc. So e.g. " 'country name' inheres in some 'sovereign state/country'". Also note historical name issue (Myanmar vs Burma) and diplomatic name issue (Taiwan vs "Republic of China"). Both point to needing a single entity with multiple names. |
