We already do! We anticipated this sort of comment by also allowing the next northernmost 9-letter country as a type-in. Can you work out which one it is? (Greenland is a country, by the way, but that's another story)

I found the acceptable type-ind for Greenland. It is Lithuania!

Kære litauiske folk, vores vidunderlige land navn Grønland allerede har otte bogstaver. Lyt ikke til udlændinge, der ikke kan stave korrekt. De spilder breve og forårsage problemer mellem os. Lad os drikke stærke drikke sammen og slutte fred.

Just wondering, should it be 'reach' northernmost instead of 'are' northernmost, since I presume you are considering the northernmost point of each country? Well done on this 'countries by length' series you are doing!
