Compliments! This page is wonderful and very useful. -- Checco 10:07, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
If you want to add something to the page, feel free; I'd prefer it if you post it to the talk page here or to my talk page as well, though. Thanks! — Nightst a llion (?) 05:43, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
First, let me say that this is a very good page, although I don't agree that some of things listed as "certain" in your unknown dates section are necessarily so, e.g. Irish reunification. Now I noticed in section 3.3 of this page you have listed Puerto Rico and New Columbia as US territories to become the 51st and 52nd states, and if you don't mind I was wondering what you think the chances are for Puerto Rico to become a state. Personally, I think Puerto Rico is going to hit a figurative wall in the future over its status. As it is now, 46% seem to definitely support statehood, while 48% support the current status (or controversially an "enhanced commonwealth") and the remaining 4% support independence. I've browsed through articles online that discuss the "enhanced commonwealth" proposals and quite frankly the proposals are pretty unrealistic if not totally farfetched (basically wanting a non-territorial status that isn't statehood or independence with all the benefits of being a U.S. state and being sovereign), however, it seems the idea has gained currency in the territory. I have to wonder though, what will happen in the future if the commonwealth supporters try to implement the enhanced commonwealth proposals only to have them struck down as unconstitutional by the US Supreme Court. If (or more likely when) the enhanced commonwealth proposals are shown to be unachievable in their current form then the only viable options are statehood, status quo or independence (including free association, which is the status that most closely resembles the enhanced commonwealth). If that happens, then I see one of three things happening:
To that end I think it's a little bit more likely that New Columbia (minus the National Capital Services Area which would become a rump DC according to the draft constitutions) might become a state. Well, those are my thoughts, just wanted to get your views on the issues. 72.27.1.101 05:52, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
What do you mean by "Transitional" governments? Could the current Serbian government (in resignation) be counted there? -- PaxEquilibrium 11:07, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
BTW, do you not like my edits to the SRB on this subpage of yours? -- PaxEquilibrium 15:36, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
By the way, two things (about Kosovo): The flag's deleted; you've gotta just a red link over there. Negotiations are over, page needs updating.
BTW Kosovo does not belong to "Will hold a referendum", but to "Certainly wants to secede". Kosovo did have (regardless as unorthodox, even illegal and improper as it can be) in 1992 (more than 90% of those who voted voted for independence; turnout was over 70%). -- PaxEquilibrium 10:20, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
You could/should note the merger of GSS into LDP on this article... -- PaxEquilibrium 22:32, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
Hi! About the new Chilean regions, they will be official in October 3rd AND 9th: October 3rd for Los Ríos and October 9th for Arica y Parinacota. Greetings... I really like this page :) -- B1mbo 20:01, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
You do not think so?
BTW you should add the incoming new election (it's become evident). -- PaxEquilibrium 09:41, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
This page is quite useful, even if I disagree on a couple of points. Cheers Nightstallion Brian | (Talk) 20:55, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
Just stumble onto here. Great article. Pretty useful if I ever want to put a wager on who will be the 200th UN member (and when). BTW, Bougainville should be Bougainville Province. I've made the dab for you. Chanheigeorge 22:36, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
Image:Republic of Choson Flag.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

I'd like to start out that I agree that this is a fantastic page and probably agree with it all (although I can't remember what I may have disagreed on!) Anyway, according to our page, France, Germany and Greece ratified on 4 December, 7 November and 14 January, respectively. If this is correct, Albania will only need the European Communities to ratify before its SAP can come into force and you could be getting a definitive date for their membership application soon.

Howdy! Just wanted to give you a heads up that the 2023 Togolese election has been postponed to 2024. I moved the page and saw that you're one of the last pages linking to it, so I thought I'd drop in and give you the chance to update that. wherethetacos ( talk) 00:47, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
