Countries with Most Average Names

Give the countries whose names are on average most similar to the names of other countries, with similarity measured by minimum edit distance.
A brief explanation of "minimum edit distance" can be found in the instructions to this quiz.
An average distance of 7 means that, if you wanted to convert that country's name into the name of any other country, it would require seven changes (insert a letter, remove a letter, change a letter) on average.
